Will Less Stud Income Help Keep Horses Racing

Obviously fillies are a different question here but I feel like we have turned the corner in some respect to having horses actually run rather than be retired to stud. Maybe Curlin was a bit of a turning point, though I get it he wasn't racing till he was 6. But looking at some horses who are continuing to run I am hoping the downside of an economic slowdown will be an upside for older horses who continue to run. At the very least seeing horses like Rachel and Zenyatta and Goldikova gives me hope that the colts aren't far behind.
