and yeah, right now with farms reassessing fees, and people going cheaper with a lot of their mares, you don't want anyone looking at big brown and thinking worse of him then they would just based on him being a boundary. yeah, he won the derby...but so did giacomo, and he didn't get 75 grand--and i like holy bull better than boundary.
sunday silences conformation was pretty bad-it sure didn't hurt him in the end. but i'd think a poorly built horse would cause more hesitation than feet issues. how well is big brown put together anyway?

Between 60 and 75 and I am guessing the high end to give them a little wiggle room on the deals. I honestly havent seen Sunday Silence in so long I cant remember what his conformation was like.

It is not an exact science. There are a things that breeders have done that are probably not ideal but it is a really hard thing to do well. The vast majority of people who crave stamina and complain about the breed dont breed, own or race horses.
