Memo to Fatman. You can hardly be considered an authority on "conformation" when you clearly cannot even spell the word. The interests of the thoroughbred community would be better served if intellectually challenged blowhards would just remain on the sidelines.

I think Stronach made a wise decision to not breeze the life out of those baby Ghostzappers. Lord knows that Ghostzapper could only run 2.75 times per year in his 4 years of racing so running those little Zappers really fast at 2years of age will most certainly retire the little devils before they even make it to the track. I looked at Adena Springs stallion roster and I'll tell you what, nobody could pay me enough to breed anything to their roster of unsound stallions. Mr. Stronach needs to add confirmation and soundness to his herd.

I wonder if MEC's current financial crisis had a part in this decision? Even Frank Stronach might be in a financial pinch. Selling all these yearlings certainly will cut back on his racing stable.

Adena's decision to sell the yearlings instead of training up to the 2 year old sales (without breezing) will mean someone else will end up buying the babies and breezing the life out of them. It would be nice if they would continue to uphold the integrity of 2 year olds in training the safe way and continue to prove that champions can come from time honored foundations.
