Pedigree's worthless if the horse isn't very good (for the most part) - so I don't think they worry about it with mediocre horses - either you don't cut him and he never wins or you cut him and maybe he wins a few races or even gets good. Not cutting a bad horse isn't going to make him stallion-worthy. I agree that they should probably geld more.

I wonder what would've happened to Discreet Cat if Hough had gelded him. . .

they should of the horse was not that good. people on here were calling him a monster. the horse had problems and probably should not be bred. thats part of the problem people breed unfit horses and wonder why the offspring breaks down, basic biology 101. who am i to say rich people have to have something to piss away their money on but not at the expense of horse racing. the breed weakens everytime they breed these so called "fast" horses that have weak limbs. now some fools are paying 50 mil for big brown. so they can reproduce more horses with bad feet . go figure .

The interesting question is how long would DC have lasted in Hough's barn BEFORE getting cut.

it would of been a blessing. the horse could not make training or racing dates due to physical problems. breed physically bad horse get more breakdowns and injuries . don't you people see what happens , these horses can't even run without weeks and weeks off. i wonder why ?
