I just got in trouble on Facebook by a casual racing fan for saying secretariat was meh as a stallion but did turn out to be a decent broodmare sire.



Same person who probably would get excited seeing Seattle slew 3-4 generations back

He is going to stud at Ashford. I am betting his stud fees will go over $250 thousand. Glad he was a Kentucky bred horse.

Eh, I say $125,000

The market isn't what it used to be.

Especially with his up close female family.

Wonder what this does to Yankee gentleman (damsire). He's standing down here in la

Really? Also, they said they will continue to race him up to next year. Hope he races at the Breeders Cup at Keeneland. It will be absolutely nuts in November if he races.

I'm sure regular horse's cum taste the same and is much cheaper, bro...

I hope he keeps running.

Tapit just made the jump to $300,000. Take a look at his progeny earnings. Once pharoah's proven he'll start to climb.

ETA: and it's a crapshoot. Most of Secretariat's offspring didn't do anything special, while some lesser known sires have produced great horses.


Secretariat produced some 600 foals and they did nothing of note you are correct. What's funny is the offspring of his daughters actually turned out to be really great. He was a great damsire. Breeding horses is funny business.

Reiley McDonald, a managing partner with thoroughbred firm Eaton Sales, explained the logic to the International Business Times. "If they stand [breed] him as a Triple Crown winner for $100,000 to $150,000 and breed 150 mares to him... you do the math, that’s significantly more than what he can make as a race horse during the season.”

not to mention a lot more fun for the horse

No Aspy, they'll ask $250. They'll take $125

Like you said, it ain't what it used to be.

True but I guarantee you he won't break a leg mounting.

And that's what insurance is for.

With his female family, I kinda doubt they'll ask $250,000 first year.

The guy jumped my case big time when I suggested he wasn't a stand out except as a broodmare sire.

I just laughed and left it alone. He's one of those only watch racing at triple crown types.

You forgot lady's secret. She was my favorite.

They don't do that anymore, for the most part. He'd be rehabbed and even if he could barely walk, he'd be screwing.

Horse pimps will go to great lengths to get their money.
