i don't see tho, what one fee has to do with the other. both deserve to be at their price. really not sure at all why you brought up smarty. i'd have brought up bluegrass cat, or even ap warrior with their bloated fees. at least bgc has a grade one...
as for more desirable, depends on the mare.

I thought it was pretty obvious that I brought up Smarty because he and Bernardini are two recent retirees who stand at equal fees. I agree that Bluegrass Cat and A.P. Warrior stand for too much, but the point is that there's no way Smarty should be standing for as much as Bernardini does. I guess I'm just making a point in retrospect because I never chimed in when Smarty's fee was first announced. I also thought Bernardini would be at least $150k.
