Heading: Value of the Horses[8]

Text: The parties presented widely disparate estimations of the value of the various horses owned by the W.R. Partnership. D.M.'s expert valued the horses at a total value of $4,500. [9] D.M. herself testified that she thought Almaz was worth at least $7,500 and that the two foals, Anna and Jewel, were worth $4,000 to $5,000 and $1,500 respectively. D.A. valued Almaz at $20,000, Anna at $15,000, and Jewel at $15,000. The court found that Almaz was worth $10,000, that Anna was worth between $7,500 and $10,000 and that Jewel was worth $7,500. The court placed the value of an unborn foal of Almaz at $2,500. [10] Given the range of values placed on these horses and the difficult nature of valuation in the Arabian horse market, we cannot say that the values chosen by the court were clearly erroneous.
