I believe Godolphin sees the two as quite different, at this point. Because Bernardini is a son of A.P. Indy and not Forestry, he could be too important to their breeding program. That will be the fans' loss and I hate it.

With Coolmore shelling out $16m for a son of Forestry, surely having a Champion son of that stallion of their own will be huge for Godolphin. I disagree, I would say that Discreet Cat is the more important of the 2.
