I have to disagree on the comment that Eddington wasn't that good on the racetrack. His 4YO season was turning into something special before he was injured. Millionaire, graded winner at 3 and 4, GI winner as well. I don't see how that is anything other than a success actually.

Successful but not memorable.

Distorted Humor stood 2003 for 20K....he was 60K in '05 and 225K for '07
Awesome Again stood 2003 for 50K....went to 125K in '05 and 150K in '07

and for the record smart strike was 35K in 2005... not 20K, that was 2003...

best guess is that they haven't made up their minds yet....praying something he has sired decides to run so they don't have to drop his fee....because right now he isn't going to fill at last years 25.
