I have raised many world champions and reserve world campion horses. There used to be a market for them. I've pretty much ended my breeding program as when the economy goes sour, horses are not considered necessary. Then throw in a dought and extremly high priced hay and feed, and it's not pretty. So I've sold off a few, and some are getting old and are living out their lives. Here's a video of one I had trained last year. I have spent over $5000 in training. She's a very good quality horse but I doubt I'll get my money back out of this.
