$16 Million Horse
The Green Monkey was the most expensive thoroughbred race horse ever sold at public auction. I was at the 2006 fasig-tipton select two year old sale and managed to capture this amazing video as he went through the ring and two bidders kept adding $1 Million onto the price. Follow along and enjoy the action, it's quite amazing. I really didn't understand the hype surrounding this horse because there just wasn't enough horse physically and i still believe Lion Heart and Favorite Trick had better 1/8 mile drills. The Green Monkey later raced and was a failure on the track never even winning a race. He was retired early and currently stands at stud for $5,000. Here's his pedigree: http://www.pedigreequery.com/the+green+monkey

horse racing isnt the problem its how people treat their horses and gambling has nothing to do with it. This horse is clearly has a great pedigree and will likely become a good 3-day event horse. PLUS HE ISNT DRUGGED! if he was he would be sluggish and not as hyped up as he was.

He's beautiful, but not built like a race horse at all... and clearly drugged up to act like that and then have never won a race. It's a sad business but I'm obsessed what can I say

Horse racing and horse auctions end in death. Don't go to the races

Or, better yet, go adopt a horse. there are millions in need

Great way to treat a 16 million dollar horse when his handler is pulling at his bit and you can see the horse is feeling pain by the way he is holding his head , pieces of maggot shit they should ban the racing industry for many reason which you ignorant assholes don't give a shit about . Let me put a metal bit in your mouths and pull you around and see if it doesn't hurt your teeth and gums .

Horse Racing is Animal Cruelty.
Horse were not meant to run like that. I turned my back on this Abuse after I saw how many horses Were dying live on TV for the simple pleasure of gamblers and those with too much who do not use it to help they use it to hurt. -
Horse auctions - faster talking than horse race commentary
