Value of a mare..

[paisjpq]

as an example...of the 30 storm cat yearling offered at auction last year 12 of them failed to bring bids equal to the stud fee...

there were 6 "home runs" but obviously for a commercial breeder thats a fairly big risk to take.

and his 2YO numbers at auction are AWFUL...which makes sense since only the real train wrecks show up there...but still...
