I definitely do think they get too much of the blame. I posted on another thread that I thought it was ridiculous that they are being attacked for retiring Bernardini and Henny Hughes yet somehow Coolmore retired Aussie Rules, a sound 3yo, for a $15,000 stud fee and are avoiding scrutiny. The whole breeding industry is a problem for racing but there is really no hope of it getting fixed anytime soon while people know the Shiekhs and Coolmore will vastly overpay for one of their horses.
