We heard stories of doom and gloom - that golf course architect Donald Trump was out of the running for Running Horse. But the deal is back on - maybe.

Billionaire developer Donald Trump and Running Horse owner Mick Evans are on the verge of signing a purchase agreement for the financially troubled golf and residential project in southwest Fresno.

Running Horse bankruptcy lawyer Riley Walter said that Running Horse and the Trump side have agreed in principle on a sale price in the $30 million range, with no money coming from profits once Trump begins developing the site.

Walter, who said he participated in talks with the Trump team until about 8 p.m. Friday, said the deal calls for Trump to make a $2 million deposit by the end of Monday.

I’m going to continue to be an open cheerleader for the Donald picking this project up, just for the continued puns on Running Horse Trump International, Fresno will provide plenty to talk about.
