Yeah, but they dont breed them to race them. Great Mares produce really good sales returns.. I can already see Makybe's offspring returning a record amount. Add in a decent sire with a good R/W strike rate, and its not going to be in anyone local's price range.

She may have been passed in, but her foals will never be.. even if they all never see a race track. Having lots of dollars does not necessarily mean one is in possession of a great deal of sense.
