Of all the destinations for a stallion...why LIBYA? Haven't enough horses been stolen/died there? :(
They have been trying for a while now to upgrade their racing industry. Nick Luck interviews Libyan horsemen now and then and they really do want to make it a proper racing nation. If French breeders were insistent on unloading him, and no one wanted to buy him privately, then the highest bidder gets him. Can’t put a “Libyans need not bid” clause in there

It’s wild how fast he fell off as a stallion. His first couple crops were good enough for his fee to top out at €30,000 in 2018, but then he just didnt go on from there.
