When St Liam won last year, believe me, they weren't just screaming about the purse money in the BCC. They got a HUGE payout from the buyer for that.

What about when Leroidesanimaux got crowned? You think his price didn't change.
A little bird told me that the farm paid the owners an extra couple of million
not to run him one more time, just to let him come on to the farm.
I can't be sure, but apparently they wanted to run him in one more big purse race and the farm just paid them what he would have made if he won and then some.
Don't quote me though.
