I wouldn't be so sure. Win Star were so excited to be standing him as a sire next year, they would not have accepted a bid unless it was sky high. I'd go as far as saying they wouldn't have accepted anything lower than twice his true value.
Don't forget, if Hard Spun wins a Gr1 before he retires, the price goes up another $15million, doesn't it?
I really wouldn't be surprised if it were close to $50million.
Win Star wouldn't get rid of a really good stallion prospect unless the offer couldn't be turned down
