When you consider that he was RNA'd for just $4,500 as a yearling - and his dam broke down after about seven jumps in her only career race - and all of his siblings have been flops ... thankfully he was gelded instead of being given an opportunity to further pollute the breed.

But yeah, how do you pay $2 million for a gelding? Even after a debut win as good as his?
