No one wants to waste a season with a good mare hoping that she's one of the 6 or so that season that catch.
Unless he's retested this season and has a better result, he's not viable as a stud, so again, why not treat hm as you would a gelding and maximize his on track earnings by running him where he's most likely to win.
Yeah makes sense... I just thought he'd been able to do it a few times.....
