Half Ours will remain in training.

I understand that these were .50 dollars but that seemed awfully high for a horse that was scratched lame this spring, is going to be 4 years old and has 2 starts. I understand that he is fast and talented but have we come to the point where horses stand stud because of what they might have accomplished instead of actual accomplishments?
