Think of all the money Godolphin provides those who are already involved in the industry to go out and buy more. I personally know one owner who has a good number of horses, several stakes winners, and was more than happy to sell a stakes winner to Godolphin because of all the other equine investments he could pursue as a result.


People love to crucify our friends in blue for buying.

Meanwhile the sellers are never slammed.

That's all I'm gonna say (maybe). I've already listed charitable contributions, etc. so no need to state my point again. I have so many times now No Chance...
