I have wanted Quake for a long time. I can't even really explain why. She even inspired me to write an article about her in the Insider. Here is the link... Quake article.
Anyway, I tried to acquire her from KRF and was unsuccessful. A short time later, I was flabbergasted when I realized I whiffed again when Bally Doyle bought her in an unpublicized sale. I figured she would reside with Amanda for a long time, so I shrugged my shoulders and forgot about her.
I happened to be on the Photo Finish site yesterday and noticed that Amanda was online. I flipped over to the sales page (as is my custom) and quickly spotted that Quake had been put up for auction.
Quickly, and with fingers trembling, I sent Amanda a PM telling her that I wanted Quake. She promptly removed her from the sales page (luckily there no bids in the few minutes she was available) and worked out a deal with me. I had been trying to find a new home for Nova, so we quickly came to terms. She gets a miler with world class speed and I get a horse that I have wanted for years.
Ahhh... that feels good.

I'd say that you upgraded just a bit with this one. Nice job.
