A better question is 225k for AP first year vs. Frankel who I think was 100k pound sterling.. How does that happen. Only a few breeding to race that aren't Coolemoore or Zayat mares will go to him at 225K. Because it makes no sense

Empire Maker is standing for 100,000 at Gainesway, NO WAY in Hell I pay more to breed to Pioneer of the Nile!! American Pharoah is a phenom so I can see the excitement of his first crop, especially considering what Ghostzapper stood for and Pharoah did significantly more, but the bargain of the bloodline is the original, proven source, I'd book Empire Maker !

If we're talking about on-track performances, I don't think I'd agree that AP did more than Ghostzapper. http://www1.drf.com/row/pps/ghostzapper.pdf

Wow. That is some roster.. Uncle Mo, Munnings and Declaration are strong 'next generation' stallions.. and Stay Thirsty is going to hit too based on the early sales.

I'm shocked but not. What would make a breeder go to Pharoah (unproven at 200k) and POTN ($125k and not so hot once you get past Pharoah) when you can go to Empire Maker for the "bargain basement deal" of $100k? Mind boggling, this breeding business.
