Racing! You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers
Hello, my name is John Cherwa, and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we take a look inside the auction house.
The answer man is back and ready to handle some of your questions.
Sandy Wyper asked: How does it work when someone puts a “reserve” on a horse in a sale? They keep talking about the “buyback rate” but what does that really mean? Does the owner actually have to pay to take their own horse back home? Did someone give them the reserve price up front so it’s just a matter of giving the money back or something else?
For an answer we went to Terence Collier, the director of marketing and senior sales announcer, at Fasig-Tipton, a thoroughbred auction house that was formed in 1898.
“In most of the locations where any auction is conducted, for anything from antiques to exotic cars to thoroughbreds, the appropriate legal code provides the right for a seller to place a ‘reserve bid’ on his or her property, below which they are not willing to sell. The only exception is in auctions described in the catalog as ‘without reserve’ or offered at ‘absolute auction,’ another term for ‘no reserve.’
“When the buy-back rate is discussed, this is the number or percentage of items which do not get bids higher than their reserve bid and are thus ‘bought back’ by their owner.
“Sometimes these are described as RNA’s (reserve bid not attained) or ‘bought in.’ These all have the same meaning — a sale transaction has not taken place.
“The seller decides the amount of the reserve bid, but often consults with a knowledgeable representative of the auction company or a professional sales agent. If the seller’s circumstances make this sale necessary, the reserve tends to be conservative. Conversely, if the seller is not motivated, the reserve is often aggressive, and in these cases, many such offerings are bought back.
“There is a distinct but variable financial consequence for a seller ‘buying back’ his or her property. Fasig-Tipton, for example, has the contractual position with its sellers to charge the seller a 5% commission for every transaction — be it a real sale to another party or a ‘buy back.’
“As competition among all auction houses has become more aggressive, sellers are sometimes offered deals on commissions. This is particularly true in fine art, jewelry or antiques. However, if there is no commission charged on buy-backs, sellers are likely to set unrealistic reserves, the ‘buy-back’ rate or percentage becomes very high and that auction venue loses buyers, legitimacy and credibility, leading to its decline.”
Terence, thanks as always, only thing that would make it better is to have you deliver in your auctioneer’s voice.
Henry Fowzer asks: What is the significance of the #8 that some horses wear during their workouts? Does it have anything to do with horses that are on the vet’s list?
For an answer, and in this case research, we turn to Russell Hudak, who is the morning-line maker, and clocker and timer at Del Mar and Los Alamitos. He served in a similar capacity for decades at Hollywood Park.
“There is no official or otherwise required reason for horses to display the number 8 during workouts in the morning. I floated this question to other clockers currently working in Southern California (SA & Dmr) and neither reported any common sighting of the number on display.
“However, some trainers have race-day saddle clothes (both stakes and other) which are used when a horse is sent out to the track. The number 8 could be on some of those towels. Otherwise, I can only venture to say that perhaps there is a symbol resembling an 8 that is noticeable on some saddle towels.”
As always, thank you Russ for your wisdom.

The ECHR is for Gulfstream and the WCHR is for Santa Anita. This is a limited offer, only a couple of days. And limit one to a customer. It’s a $19 savings. Rob says he got quite a few responses when he offered this on Thursday and he delivered with four winners and a cold exacta box in the last race. So, seems like a no brainier to me to try it out. No strings.
Santa Anita review
Nothing to see here, move along. Santa Anita did announce that its single-ticket pick six jackpot is up to $275,490. Did it ever occur to you that anyone who has the only pick six winning ticket probably doesn’t really need any more money? Just sayin’.
Santa Anita preview
A pretty good nine-race card with four turf races and a good, competitive Grade 2 stakes. Five of the races are claimers, with an additional allowance optional claimer. Field sizes are good except for the second, a maiden claimer for fillies and mares 4 and up, with only six horses.
The centerpiece to the day is the eighth race, the Grade 2 $200,000 La Canada Stakes at its new distance of a mile. The race for fillies and mares used to be run at 1 1/16 miles.
The favorite, at 9-5, is Majestic Heat, a converted turf runner who has found great success on the dirt. She is two-for-two on the dirt, winning both stakes easily. And she gets Mike Smith in the saddle.
“She seems to enjoy it,” trainer Richard Mandella told Ed Golden of Santa Anita. “She always showed me that she would like the dirt, so we took a shot and it worked. We took another shot and it worked again.”
Mopotism, for Doug O’Neill, is the second favorite at 7-2. In her last race, the La Brea, she finished third behind Eclipse-nominee Unqiue Bella and two-time Grade 1 winner Paradise Woods.
Union Strike, for trainer Mick Ruis, is entered but may instead run in Monday’s Megahertz Stakes on the turf.

Bob Ike’s SA play of the day
FOURTH RACE No. 7 Unapologetic (4-1)
Freshened for three months but working every seven days for sharp trainer Bill Spawr (see result below), this 5-year-old gelding reunites with Mike Smith and figures to get a great trip in this 9-furlong turf event. The pace should be very comfortable with Unapologetic in a good stalking position turning for home.
Friday Result: Candy Swirls (trainer Bill Spawr) wired the field in the first race, paying $12.00.

Ed Burgart’s L.A. pick of the day
FIFTH RACE: No. 7 Allan’s Baby (5-2)
She was much improved for new trainer Tirso Limon in last neck loss when outrunning her 21-1 odds while trying hard vs. prior $2,500 second-place finisher Ronnie’s Girl. She since worked a quick 34 3/5 for 3 furlongs and gets a nice seven-pound weight break under promising apprentice Edgar Payeras. Her main rivals, Lady Of Fire and Berezina, don’t handle pace pressure well.
