For those with knowledge what is the cause for a Stallion's fees to drop 50%? Is it because a son of theirs has been introduced to the rossiter at the same barn or is there other reasons for the drastic drop in stud fees?
Thanks in advance for any explanations

Because they’re not any good.

In every case that I can think of, stud fees drop when there isn't enough market demand for the stallion at the previous fee. Do you have a specific example you're thinking of @AllZensonTrack?

Thanks for sharing that EliRose. Not surprised, especially since the Martin's have so many CC seasons they are trying to find breeding partners for.

The letter I got from TM also offered extra incentives for Chrome regarding his offspring. They’re pushing him pretty hard.

To be clear, ALL of the TM stallions were offered at nice discounts to previous breeders. Chrome’s was just the most glaring.

Well, ya gotta do, what ya gotta do.
