Breeders do have to bare some of the problem's on themselves, you see a breeder with 3 average bred mare's and he send's one to Art Major and can't afford to send the other 2 out to stud that year and then it's not worth taking to the sale cause he would be lucky to get his service fee back. Now that breeder would of been better off sending 3 mare's to say Live or Die for the same cost of Art Major and have 3 chance's of winning money at the race's. I think there are a lot of breeders today who think there mare's are better than they are and these people need educating on this and maybe if they understand and breed 3 for the price of one maybe breeding number's will pick up.
