I'm not sure it's that surprising - he RNA'd for a modest sum at a 2yo in training sale .. I'm not so sure he isn't worth more on the track padding those earnings and accomplishments than in the breeding shed.

I doubt he will be an attractive stallion prospect.

His owner basically said as much in the release. It's also obvious.

I don't like him as a stallion prospect either - there was a really funny article before the BC where they interviewed two "experts" - one actually said, no lie, that he could probably stand for $75K.

It's surprising to me because there was so much talk of where to run him in the BC to increase his value from the connections. I guess the fact that they ran him in the mile should've been a sign that they had abandoned their optimism.
