The stud fee for him will be outrageous anyways so there will be money coming in left and right.
The owners of AP sold the breeding rights, so his stud fee doesn't concern them.

. God forbid in one of his next races he breaks a leg and they have to put him down.
That would be terrible, but you know they have a HUGE insurance policy on him, right?
And I'll tell you exactly why they keep running him. It's good for the sport. The people absolutely love him. It's bringing coverage to a sport that needs all the coverage that they can get. Oh and the race today was worth $1.75 million. So they had $1.05 million reasons to run him today.

6,000 people showed up yesterday morning at Monmouth park (MONMOUTH!) to watch him gallop around the track fairly slowly. They a screamed when he went by. Lots of them made signs. He is so good for racing right now.
