Potential buyers said they were scared off by the high price of doing business in the city.

But buyers say that these changes can be worth the hassle.

"You can pay a lot of people in an offering like this," said one institutional buyer.

Maybe the surprise is that the buyer said he got it for a song, even though the price was $105,000.

The amenities of the town also are major draws, buyers say.

"One potential buyer said he thought his young son would be frightened by the subject."

But many buyers say they have a sense that the long boom has finally come to an end.

Both buyers said there were no current plans to take the service overseas.

In addition to having the best trainers, blood stock and advice, buyers say they need a plan.

The buyers have said that they will continue to run the inns.
