I don't get it either. I fail to see how a private investor's interest in the horse in 2012 is going to help someone breeding to Point Given in 2012, unless he is not only going to breed to the stallion but also support the stallion when his offspring hit the sales ring (like the Sheikh does with the Darley stallions). Still, it'd be a reach.

I read a different article and that article did not mention this private guy.

At least now there is a glimmer of sense to it.
