Bernardini had 67 yearlings offered at public auction last year. None sold for higher than $1.2 million.

Two years ago, his highest priced yearling was $800K.

He gets bred to a whole lot of good race mares and producers.

Zenyatta was only a $60,000 yearling herself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MP8VFLO25Q4

You know a few buyers would reach badly for her 1st offspring at auction and it only takes two. Even with that said -- if 70 Bernardini's are offered as yearlings that year -- this one would probably have to have a consensus top 5 look to get past $3 million.

The Green Monkey has nothing to do with any yearling. He was about a 500K or so purchase as a yearling and he had relatively unremarkable breeding.
