Big Easy, the fleet miler of Bonai, was purchased by Otsego Farms at the recently concluded auction.
We are extremely excited to have acquired such a high profile horse. Big Easy has compiled an outstanding career record of 35-13-15-4 with total earnings of $3,868,400.
He had a record of 10-2-6-1 in 2008 with earnings just under a million. If you throw out his final race of the season, which was admittedly a bad trip in the BC Mile, his lowest speed score was 96. He topped out at 110 twice, once on turf and again on dirt.
Pre-auction discussions with the connections at Bonai hinted that Big Easy may be on the way down talent-wise. We decided that we could not pass on a opportunity to own a horse of this calibre, regardless of where he is on his talent spectrum.
When combined with Doomsday, King of the Sea, Union Jack, and Nova, we feel we have as good a bunch of older horses as can be found in Photo-Finish.
