Im not very good at dotting my Is and crossing my Ts but TC races was what I was refering to. What my underlying question was ? Do the big spenders try more for the breeing of runners or do they go more for the return of money in the sales ring. I was looking at the drf pull out for this past weekend concerning the upcomming Keenland sale. One of the stats that jumped out at me was Pionering and Slew City, both 5k stud fee, producing winners at over 50% from over 100 starters. We all know that they are not getting the top quality mammas. So in my opinion dosent this indicate a great way of obtaining a good mating for a smaller oreration that is looking for a productive colt.
