Its pretty competitive out there for sires B.
The top end ones are going for ridiculous money and everyone seems to be trying to let the lesser tier ones. Its a crazy market.

Yeah, I understand that. Sort of where im coming from... I think this is quite indicative of Claiborne's placing on the farm hierarchy now. Either they need to start expanding books, or the Phipps, Delschneider, and their own mares better start producing some nice colts for them.
