What would you do if you owned an animal that was worth upwards of $100,000,000 ad that is a chip you could cash in? You would run him until he was 7, right?

Sheikh Mo is worth Mr. Trump times 10.

sort of valid...when has it ever been about the money?

I mean that'll let him overpay for about 6-7 more horses down the road and all.

Tis horse will stand for $200,000 or more....mark it down.....he is that good of a stallion prospect (Bernardini), probably moreso tha any other horse I've ever seen forging into the breeding market.....

It is very easy to him as a horse that could change the breed and significantly impact racing's future stars...

that's nothing compared to his oil. So now that he won his Classic he IS about the money?

Personally, I don't care for Bernie as a stallion prospect. NOT a fan of Quiet American at all and he's inbred all to hell. I'll pass...

My point is, if i were Sheikh Mo where money is no object i'd keep him in training for his 4YO career (including a stop in Dubai for the entertainment of his entourage.)

I would too, thats why I'm surprised if this were to prove true...he can afford to be sporty and I feel as though he almost has a hidden obligation to this industry to be a aggressive on the racing end in the positon that he is in....

You think he's hated nhow by American race fans?...Shiat....They'll want to string him up i he follows through with this decision ad they should be mad...we should expect more from Darley and group.....(kidding bout the stringing up part of course

)

I would no longer remotely support them if they did this.....one of the reasons I respected them was because I thought that if they had a good horse that was perfectly healthy they race him as long as he was effective and good because they could afford to do so above any others in the game....I really hope I wasn't wrong about them, but if I was, then I will throw my Godolphin membership card in the trash and start a retraction thread about every supportive thing I've said about them over the last 5 months
