Does the breeding arm of the industry realize that in order to have a strong market in which to sell race horses, a race horse industry actually has to exist, and that horses running on an actual race track is sort of integral to that paradigm?

I know a lot of Buddha's have sold at sales and what not, but I don't know if I've ever seen an offspring of Buddha in an actual race.

Amen brotha! But the sheiks and the Coolmores have endless $$$ to keep propping up the saturated industry... just like slots prop up the sport in general.

I've often wondered what the industry would be like today if Coolmore and the Sheiks didn't arrive on the scene in the 80's ....

Maybe we wouldn't have one?

You talking about Buddha or Stormello?

Stormello was a flat out runner. You have to factor in the connections on that guy. Should throw a few runners before its all said and done.
