I don't think this is a big surprise. Especially since a lot of the mares mentioned are getting up there in age and breeders like to match them with younger stallions. $35k is a pretty reasonable fee.

Despite the lacking competition, he is a back to back champ with a solid record.

I'm aware it's Coolmore, but I'm not aware that Coolmore owns most of those mares listed.

I've liked Lucky since his early 2yo season, but still, there are better stallions at better prices.

Hell, Indian Charlie to this day doesn't get overall books like that!

You are missing the point. If you are breeding to sell having Coolmoore and clients supporting you doesnt suck. You have Baffert and his clan. Pegram has always supported whatever he has owned to a point. Plus Lucky is a Smart Strike so it isn't impossible that Farish and friends would be interested in a nice filly or two.
