sixties icon colt just sold for 65k may turn out to be a bargain in 2yrs imo

BSM i think thats a bit too much. I don't think that Channon's efforts as good as they have been, can justify such a rise. 6k would have been plenty

I too was a little shocked by that rise.
I was thinking 6.5 would be where it was at.
However, I am notoriously rubbish at keeping up with the next big thing so I shall be interested to see if others on here agree with us.

Sounds high to me too and although I think he may well fill at that it will be with speculating mares rather than a solid foundation book.

Should without doubt be no more than like truehoncho has said above 6k.Standing for £8,500 is ridiculous,at that sort of money it opens him up to more reliable competition and the thing to remember is 2 y'olds have run so often they may not go on as 3 y'olds,and so far he's pretty much a one trainer sire.At 8.5k sadly he's looking far to expensive coupled with only small numbers to run for the next year or two I agree with BSB's point connections have pretty much killed any commercial appeal!

It looks like Hurricane Run is on his way to Germany judging by the ad in this morning's RP. 24 Stakes performers (7 Group winners, 8 Listed winners) from four crops of racing age (3 x 3YO crops). Just a modest return you'd have to say from presumably large crops. Advertised fee: £7000.
