ROTW and Lost in the Fog

I scanned the TGraph ROTW and couldn\'t help notice TGJB mentioned a rumor about a 2 million dollar offer for Foggy:

I did a quick look at his sire\'s total progeny earnings and without putting a calculator to them I\'m not sure the aggregate of all his get earnings reaches  2 million. That said he\'s got a pretty nice looking pedigree. Secretariat to stout up the Danzig and I like the Dr. Carter and more remote Native Charger and Ribot. His near female family is unremarkable.

The T-Graph Zero last doesn\'t fill me with dread for his future. I prefer to see them start late and be fast rather than start early and be fast. If he\'s got a stamina future though you have to wonder why he\'s here. I would think its time to think about trying some longer races. 250K isn\'t nothing to sneeze at, but if you had a 2 million dollar offer, what is this race all about?

I agree with TGJB, unless this trainer knows something his actions aren\'t showing I\'d take the 2 big bills if I owned him. I see he\'s fast, but those are GG and Tup races and I dont recognize anything from them. As far as him being vulnerable here to a horse like Santana Springs, thats probably a pace/class and company question and whether Asumussen knows something that Gilchrist might not know. He\'s gonna get tested here thats for sure.

No, no...you don\'t understand he\'s a \"freak\". I would also like for him to run maybe 7F or 8.0 by now.

I can\'t beat the \"0\". So,it\'s 5/8 over 2/4/7.

He\'s a monster. I\'ve been waiting for him to run snice that last race of his....I hope they run him at 8.0F next.

The owner is 85 years old and doesn\'t care about the money at this stage of his life. He is still working at his real estate busineess. He sees this as possibly the \"big horse\" he\'s been waiting for.  Good luck to him.

I\'d like to see an old guy with dreams do it. It happened last year. Foggy did seem to get engulfed by the gallop outters awful quick after the wire. I think he\'s a sprinter, but will watch his first two turner carefully.
