I want to meet the person that would pay this

I'd rather breed to a tenacious horse with lesser breeding and take my chances that I'd get a runner, a beast that wanted to beat horses.

Well you could have a storm cat that will be unsound or you could have an AH who will more than likely be sound. I agree that the $12,5 is too high, but I think we will be surprised. Breeding isnt an exact science, so we so not know who we will get.
