I think when he crossed the 5 year old threshold without breaking his maiden they probably knew that he wasn’t going to be a very attractive stallion prospect.

If they knew he was slow early on they should've retired him unraced and claimed some mystery injury kept him off the track. Breeders looove stallions like that.

He has a full brother that was a G3SW/G1p and he couldn't get a stud deal as far as I can find. He was running in Australia, sold for 17k AUD in a digital sale, raced a few times in 2021 and that is it.
