I've opted to retire Cass Ole, winner of the Year 59 Grade 1 Endurance Heroes Stakes, Grade 1 Arabian Derby, and runner up in this year's Grade 1 Saudi Arabian Classic. He also has a SIMMY to his credit!
While he obviously could have raced for a couple more seasons, my original intent in purchasing him was as an asset for my Arabian Router breeding operation. He allows me an inexpensive yet formidable way to expand my stable in that area.
He nicks alongside the top studs in the division on some of my Blue Hen girls, but also seems to be a hair behind them on others. So far I haven't gotten worse than an "A" on him, and he has three A+ nicks out of nine total tested.
His fee for the season is set at $7,500, making him an enticing option for those looking for quality on a budget.
