maybe...
but one could also argue that a more sound animal wouldn't need drugs to run...who know's really...but IMO steroids etc are not a great addition to the industry and if he can find horses that didn't receive them while racing (not sure that's possible) and that horse was any good at all...well since they breed to race and not to sell then he can afford to make that gamble and breed to said stud.
