breeding sales yearlings is all about the first crop sire...
it's true that pretty much any storm cat that goes through the ring will bring $$ but for the commercial breeder the potential for profit isn't really in the big ticket sires it is in the first year sires in the 40-60k stud fee range...those yearlings are the real bread and butter of the breed to sell market...they might make more $$ on an ap indy or a storm cat but they will often get a better ROI on a 1st year stud.
