Scuds, you see the BS on that PDF.

"Budda is the leading son at stud of leading sire Unbridled's Song."

A) Does he even have a stakes winner yet?

B) Let alone a multiple winner?

unless I missed it,
NO to (A) at least.

that Lenaro horse ran 3rd in the Debutante.
thats it as far as I know.

I think he will do well, but its way too early.
leading USong at stud?
dont know what measurement they are using.

Eurosilver will be a very nice stallion for USong.

Look at that PDF and at some of the costs. While I am all about people taking advantage of their success, there is some SHADY stuff in there, at least from this rookie owner's perspective....

1) Calder Sales Expenses = $20k?
2) LRF Finance charges = Sales agent fee = 22,750?
3) Sales Commission = $150k

KICK THAT around and THEN when the horse wins, you have the standard trainer/jock fee, then you get hit with a 5% partner fee and a 2% BARN FEE? What the hell is a barn fee?

I saw Divide and Conquer as a yearling and really liked him.

Gary Stevens is out as the advisor of LRF correct?

Yeah Stevens bailed and didn't comment on it. My guess is because of the ridiculous fees involved and the perceived human-jacking that is taking place. If I am wrong about this, I will apologize but those fees look absolutely out of line, and to me it look like LRF is padding the pockets with all these commissions
