There could also be an argument that (1) his advisors were talking nonsense and that (2) his own sale prognostication was conjured up when high on drugs of addition.
Or if I'm wrong the racing and breeding world has certainly gone bonkers.

Just as a matter of interest regarding the outstanding sire Snitzel.
As a rising 23yo with approximately 1000 colts to race he's produced just three marketable stallions thus far. They are as follows, all having lost considerable lustre as their identical stud fees demonstrate. Highest Stud Fee 2025 Stud Fee Shamus Award: $88k $33k Russian Revolution: $88k $33k Trapeze Artist: $88k $33k His Winx foal needs to perform to be commercially marketable, and even if he does so stud success is far from guaranteed. |

i think the bonkers started some time ago SC "At one point, Northern Dancer's stud fee had risen to $1 million and at the age of 20 a European syndicate unsuccessfully offered $40 million to buy him. Northern Dancer's fertility waned in his later years and he was euthanized at the age of 29 on Nov., and Even more impressive, his total stud fees soared well beyond $100,000,000, immeasurable in today's dollars." google and Paulick report

Snaafi Dancer (foaled February 25, 1982) was a Thoroughbred racehorse who was the first yearling to sell for more than US$10 million ($32.2 million in current dollars).[2][3]
Snaafi Dancer never raced. It was reported that he was so slow in training that it would have been embarrassing to run him in public.[8] He was retired to stud duty where he was discovered to have fertility problems. From two years of breeding, he sired only four foals, three of which raced with very limited success. Snaafi Dancer was last reported as being at a farm in Florida.
