Is their really a market for Captain Optimstic at stud rather than racing him as a 4 YO

We will be able to measure Nancy's promotion by the number of yearnings she buys from his first crop!

There's no way. $8K and even that is generous.

I would not send a donkey to him only because there are 20 or 30 out there that are more appealing

Nice colt, big, good pedigree, very good family, campaigned at the highest level and had a few days in the spotlight. He might make a showcase stallion somewhere else, but not in NJ. He's a second tier stallion. Sire stakes horses sure, grand circuit, exception, not the norm. Who knows, they might try and make him a top-tier stud. Gulotta is a heavyweight, he has some good broodmares, and he's well respected. This colt will be the first Captaintreacherou s standing in NJ (I think), and NJ doesn't have much in the way of top stallions these days. There's also "political" and "business" motivations here.
