am i the only person who doesn't hate or despise this deal?
one of those i scratch your back you scratch mine. Hypotheically what if IWR and stardom bound end up winning the derby and oaks, how many people can say they owned a piece of each in the same year?
I've seen dumber investments

Is being a Monarchos now a good thing?

When hasn't it been? He doubled the amount of graded stakes winners he's produced this year.

Of course, it was from 1 to 2.

when someone is looking to buy a top three year old to try to win the derby, i think he might like that said colt is by a derby winner. i know monarchos isn't exactly a top sire-but we all know a horse can get the occasional good one. whether it pans out for them is another story.

They were thinking this guy was gonna win the Triple Crown and they would all be set still having 90% of his breeding value.

Guess that didnt turn out how they were hoping!

i just remember that iavarone came out complaining so much about how much money they 'lost' when brown didn't win the tc-so i figured that impacted the deal.

yeah they lost all that money cause they kept 90% of the horse... and while they were insane believing the horse was worth 60 mill around preakness time... the horse was worth way less after the belmont flop

Guess I wasn't that crazy.
