Stardom Bound Goes for 5.7M to IEAH

Stardom Bound at Fasig Tipton

Stardom Bound in the ring at Fasig Tipton’s November Sale

Big shout out to Jessica for the info re: IEAH!

Apparently, they have Babe to thank:

Michael Iavarone, co-owner of IEAH Stables, said it was a little more than he wanted to pay, but trainer Rick Dutrow, who was sitting beside him during the Fasig-Tipton sale, wouldn’t let him stop bidding.

”Rick wouldn’t let me say no,” Iavarone said. ”I guess if you were going to spend $5 million, you can spend $5.7 million.”

As noted during the auction, Stardom Bound was a pro in the ring. She stood quietly while the bidding went on around her. Best of luck to her with her new crazy family. My only question is, what if she doesn’t like dirt?

Flash poll (sans polling widget), will Better Than Honour go for more?
