And a Great Buy!!!!! ultra-impressive winning the race by nine lengths, the betting on the Dwyer has drawn a lot more attention than the horse's performance. That is because the NYRA feed showed Firenze Fire at 5-1 as the field left the gate and then the horse was 5-2 when the odds were updated about 20 seconds after the race began. The pool for the Dwyer closed at 4:38:38. At 4:38.02, an $8,500 win bet was made on the eventual winner. A series of bets between $2,083 and $4,355 followed.

It's apparent that one player made a $60,000 win bet at that time, but his or her tote company was only able to record the bets at a maximum of $5,000 each. Cont. p16

DEMAND HIGH AT JRHA FOAL SALE GALILEO FILLIES KICKSTART By Daithi Harvey JULY WEEK AT TATTERSALLS HOKKAIDO, Japan--Day two of the JRHA Select Sale provided bloodstock investors and owners the opportunity to acquire some of the best pedigreed foals in Japan. Unlike other foal sales worldwide, the dams of these foals have not quite finished their task at hand and, having accompanied their offspring to Northern Horse Park, each mare and foal will return to their respective homesteads for the rearing process to be completed. Upon weaning, the purchaser will complete the transaction initiated on Tuesday. Last year's corresponding session saw the record broken for the top-priced foal at this sale when a Deep Impact (Jpn) colt sold for -580-million ($5,213,717/,3,934,724/i4,453,056) and despite that record remaining intact on Tuesday, any auction that can a yield a -290-million ($2,606,401/,1,967,362/ i2,226,528) sale topper has to be deemed a success.

That quickly escalated and it wasn't long before the price doubled before eventually settling at -290-million in favour of Satomi Horse Company Co. Ltd.
