Based on his race record, what stud fee would you be willing to pay to breed to Giant Chieftain?
While I would be pretty pissed off that I paid 950k, and he's stuck in a 2 other than and gelded as a 4 year old, the Robsham's have been with Stan Hough for a long time and know his routine. I also don't think that Hough called one day and said "Oh by the way Mrs. R, I gelded that Giant's Causeway colt you spent almost a million dollars for." I'm sure she (or at least her racing manager) had some say in the deed.
