Default Greeley's Galaxy to stand in NY

http://www.ntra.com/content.aspx?type=news&id=22195

I like the decision to stand in NY but come on, this is getting ridiculous. We are at the point where horses of the quality of Aussie Rules, AP Warrior, and Ivan Denisovich don't run past 3 and Greeley's Galaxy doesn't run past 4. Doesn't this breeding bubble have to burst at some point?

NY has a son of Mr Greeley. The very fast veteran of 47 races, Captain Red.

Lightbulb The Market Will Go Down

Eventually who wants to pay 7-8 mill for a horse that might race till he's 4 then if he only wins a gr 2 or 3 he's not worth what you paid for him. The only people that will buy all stock will be the shieks, then it will take alot of interest out of horse racing. Cause the owners like to win races but it will eventually will be a sport that will be over run buy the sheiks, and breeding fees will go way down to try and keep the everyday owner involved.
