I've seen a ton of nice stallions for under $5,000, but the offspring just doesn't sell for a whole lot. I know that Elusive Quality was considered "cheap" before Smarty. Now he goes for $100,000. Wasn't he like $10k before Smarty?  |
i believe elusive quality was at 60k when smarty hit the scene. he is a desired 'sprinter/miler' , in the record books..and then was the top first year sire until elusive city got dq'd for gastrogard--which moved funny cides old man to the top spot. he went to 100k after smartys derby.
