It's Academic to stand in Canada next year for a stud fee of $6000Captain Albano to stand in NY next year for a fee of $8500, still has the Matron & Progress Pace left this year.Sig Sauer to stand in PA next year for a fee of $8000.Hellabalou to stand in Indiana next year for $4000.
They need more stake races for 4yr old's and less money to the 2 yr old divisions. 2 yr old's racing 12 or 14 times is crazy. Their careers are over before they are fully grown. It needs to change.
its a sad game when the top horses in the division are always retiring at 3hopefully we can get Nijinsky and Mirage Hanover to stay. I think they have alot of potential to dominate the sagging aged ranks. I doubt TCI comes back but would think some of Ake's make it back. Would like to see horses like R Melina, Elista Hanover and Allgient come back along with My Girl EJ, Its A Love Thing and Rocket Deo on the pacing sideIts Academic definitely lost a step but he has some value at stud. Never saw the attraction with Hellabalou..half mile specialist i guess
