    He should recoop that fairly quickly as he presents an interesting outcross to so many mares in WA. However, he is a known commodity that has poor fertility statistics that would concern me with a broodmare if he could get her in foal. That being said, $80,000 is an easy price to pay for a shot at the stumps. The farm he stands would now determine his future in real terms.

    Rupert has only had 3 stakeswinners (2 Listed and 1 Grp 3), with the last SW born in 2019.

    Bought it for 9k in June 2019 and sold it for 1k in Dec 2020. It served 7 mares in 2019 and none in 2020. If I Din Havadime was one of the results of the 2019 matings and it has won 150k including bonuses.
     It covered 3 mares in 2021 and got 1 live foal.

    Luke is proving himself to be a shrewd operator. Looking at multiple ways to make a quid, you have to applaud that. Best wishes with the stallion.

    The importance of the sheer number of mares a Stallion gets can't be understated. 

    Managing his fertility would be the first task and more mares can't hurt. 

    I would market him at $5,500.
