When you take into consideration that he has well bred stock along with the latest technology in therapeutics,the numbers are not as impressive as one would expect. The R.O.I. is the only number that matters. As long as the people who finance his business are satisfied, the number of wins is irrelevant!
His barn has earned 1.4 million this year and he just spent 525K on 1 fucking horse. His ROI just took a major hit jerkoff.

Its a LOT of money no matter how you look at it !!
While the good side is....he is a well bred stallion and will have some residual value "in case"
of a disaster, it would be hard to see a good return on investment unless he performs very
well as a 4 year old and recoups lots of that purchase price.
 The fact that as a 3 year old he only has 15 starts and was only in the top 3 about 50% of those starts
does make me question the purchase a little.
Good luck to all. We need some excitement in the industry.

Huh? Allard, Banca, Surick, Burke, Pena, Oakes, & many others took regular horses & turned them into stakes performers.
Ambro Proposal, Foiled Again, & Homicide Hunter come to mind.

I responded to your asinine comment that if they aren't a stake horse at 3, they aren't a good horse. Are you telling me that a horse can't develop into a great horse at 4,5 even 6 years old. Please tell me you had just finished smoking a couple of rocks and were just too fucked up to make any sense.

They can but most that are spending a couple hundred thousand are not hoping to get lucky. They are buying performance

You're just an idiot. There are great racehorses being purchased for much less than 200K. I think they paid 70K for Foiled Again. How did he do? What a fucking jerkoff you are.

Guess that’s why you are stuck at Monticello. Foiled again was 12-13 years ago. He would of sold for 120 these days
