Location: North Dakota | I don't think he will auction for 2.5 million for the 250k 10% to be met. If they had the 250k to buy her 10% out I am sure they would. I bet someone will help the walkers purchase him though. | |

 Dancing in my Mind
Posts: 3062
Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | I have read a lot of comments about "even if Latte does sell, the Walkers well be leaving with a lot of money." Although, that could be a true statement, I think sometimes no amount of money in the world can replace that special horse in our lives. We can all speculate how much Mary loves Latte but she is the only one that really knows. I don't know Mary, I don't know how much she looks at her horses as a business or on a more personal relationship. I just know that money does not always make you feel better or OK with the outcome of a situation. For her this might go far beyond the mighty dollar and I find that whole senerio to be VERY sad.
I do not know either side of this story and if deserved, I hope the other party is treated fairly also. I just hope in the end, It is a happy outome for everyone. | |

I wonder this too now that we all know that he hurt himself again.
I would not buy any barrel horse without a vet check, much less one that has an known injury without knowing all the details
Of course, those who can afford him should be able to afford big vet bills if needed. I can barely manage the so called small vet bills
Just curious how it works at an auction of this type

Location: NE Texas | ~~ I would personally like to say that I applaud Cheri for having the pride and the class to let the chips fall where they may. It would certainly not be easy to sit back and watch what is being posted on here and on facebook all the while fighting the urge to defend what you know to be true. Cheri, there are lots of us who know you......whether that be on a personal level or just to say "nice run" or smile while passing by at a barrel race, but we know that you are class act. I applaud you for being able to endure all of this and cannot begin to imagine what this has done to you personally. I know eventually that things will settle down and it will be business as usual, but this has no doubt been hard for alot of us to read having watched you compete and respected you as a person way before Latte was even able to lope a set of barrels. For the other parties involved who have chosen the path of airing all of the details publicly, shame on you. In a world where for some reason celebrities are given a pass on what is ok and what is not, have some pride about yourself and remember that actions speak way louder than words and sometimes silence speaks the loudest and has the most credibility. Lastly, for those who believe that either those celebrities account of what the situation is is more valuable simply because they are celebrities in our discipline, I simply don't understand. What makes their opinion more valuable or more legitimate? It doesn't. In fact, if anything, these are the people who should be going above and beyond to ensure they hold themselves to a higher standard, but unfortunately that hasn't been the case. Like I said....actions speak louder and the silence is deafening.....for me at least. I posted this on the other thread, so thought I would repost it here as well. As for the injury, again, in bad taste for the other parties to post on facebook, BHW, or any other public place and absolutely could be taken as a way to affect the outcome of this situation both monetarily and could absolutely be interpretted as an attempt to directly affect the bidding, lower the top bid, and affect the outcome of the situation. If the attorneys have not advised her that this practice is illegal, they certainly should. But the horse wasn't supposed to be hauled right now anyway....legally. Sure would be sad if he's been hurt since before the NFR and continued to be hauled while hurt......illegally. I've said it once and i'll say it again....actions speak louder and silece is deafening.

Latte had no rodeo earnings when he came into Walkers life. That was "The next level" of his career and why he was sent to Mary in the first place. So she could ride and season him to the rodeo world so yes, his equistat earnings would be correct when Walkers baught him.
I also dont know where the $120,000 price tag came from. My husband heard Mary say $30,000 was the purchase price when they bought him.
Latte was NOT the horse then that he is now.
**************************************************************
***************************************************************
I think everyone may have misconstrued the 10% and 90% in the LLC .....
I have a sneaky feeling that the Walker's did not have the full amount of the
purchase price and agreed to paying 10% of his winnings along with 10% of
his value to the LLC partner if he did well ....
I think Latte won close to $400,000 in 2012 and 2013 not only in barrel money but a truck and other side items as best dressed, a private memoriam money award
etc etc .... I think all of these things are involved in the court case.....
This is a more of a common deal that makes more sense to me than what everyone is thinking .... | |
| | |
Location: California | $2.5 mil? I would go to Keeneland and pay $2.5 mil for a yearling. If Latte won every single barrel race he entered, he still wouldn't be worth $2.5 mil. That is just unrealistic and absurd.

You would think with what all that is going on with all this mess and the Auction coming up next week that Lattle would NOT be allowed to be moved are hauled to a Rodeo. And being ran in Mercedes wow now that was a long ways from home for them. I would think that there would be a court order that the horse could not be moved at all.
Some have said there was a court order he was not suppose to go anywhere. May not be true though. | |
