One that caught my eye, Sankemhar, had a short 2yo career before winning 6 out of 8 as a 3yo and then that was the finish of his career

So although there was not any success on the track in Major Roll's direct damline after his 5th dam there was enough happening in the barn to keep giving the line of an Oaks winner a chance to produce another
What do you think would have been Major Roll's top bid if he were in the 2017 APG yearling sale?
