But since you know so much I'm wondering how you could blow the prediction on a stud fee so badly, I mean 100 grand after saying 250-300 grand? Geez, don't call us, we'll call you.
His loss to Invasor cost him about $150K per. A win was going to start him at $250K. At the Keeneland sale many felt he was still going to $150K. Mineshaft and the reduction in Ghostzapper left them in a little bind. That operation is not exactly in it for the money though and I would imagine the lower fee is to attract the top mares.

Had he won and been Horse of the Year, $250K was the fee. Not sure where I said this anyway. He isn't my horse and I don't set the fee. I don't have any broodmares of that quality anyway.
