Ron, the human, said he was going to Dubai next year as far as he was concerned.

Then why the ad? Would they spend the $$ if it wasn't decided?

I hope he runs as a 5-year-old, but as soon as I saw the ad I figured he was done after 2007.

Update- here's the link to the article Riot quoted, with the specifics of the deal Sightseek mentioned:

So, do you think LR's stud fee was helped by continuing to run him, or not affected?

Oh, his fee has most definitely skyrocketed b/c of his 4YO campaign.
