He had one, now named The Leapord, sell for something like $2,500,000 --- and I believe another highly touted one drop dead after a workout at the FT Feb sale.
But yeah, he was a much better value at $35,000 in '96, while already established as a very good stallion...than he is at $500,000 right now.
The real exciting looking freshman and sophomore stallions have to become very attractive, when the most proven and dependable sires at the top have their stud fees set so tremendously high.
