KA has always made it clear he wouldn't leave Juddmonte to his children as they have no interest in racing, and he would prefer it to go as a continuing concern than a dispersal.  There's only really Sheikh Fahad Al Thani who could afford to buy it.

There's an article in today's DM about it apparently, although I can't quote from it as I refuse to read that xenophobic trash mag.

*rag*, not mag.

Jezebel, a betfarian after my own heart.

My passion in hatred of the above named rag is obviously an a par with yours and I salute you!

I do have to take you to task though on one thing.

How dare you suggest that I don't have the funds to make Prince Khaled an offer. . .

Scurrilous Wink

Make space on the non readership podium please.
There a few positive things that can be said about it, unlike any of its content.

how much would it cost to buy Frankel?

He may be the most likely buyer (as to the "merits" of such wealth is another matter) but there's plenty out there that will be interested. When prince salman of the thoro'bred corp died unexpectedly in 2003 the investments were quickly and easily dispersed.

Coolmore will want as many of those top mares as possible. It has worked so well before.
