I read in Bloodhorse today that any syndication deal for SJ\'s breeding rights will likely include a stipulation that he continue racing as a 4-year old.
How refreshing
If he wins on Belmont Day the connections have over $13 MILLION already in the bank.
Takes away a little bit of the sense of urgency to cash in on a syndication retirement deal.
Plus with all the residuals from Hats and Shirts........lol
Smarty is gonna Retire Chapman from the Auto business. I don\'t know how much longer he has but he\'s gonna be able to do whatever his body will let him.
I just wouldn\'t risk the first three years of stud fee income to a tragic track accident. If he wins the Belmont and retires he\'ll knock down 150K for stud fee multiply that by 180 for three years. I think thats conservative. 27,000,000
I hope he races at 4. I would love to see him in person at Del Mar or Santa Anita for one of those million dollar races
Haven\'t seen a real Superstar out this way since Cigar when his streak ended...on second thought he might want to stay away. lol
