Money for speed slows horse business says Nashville breeder
Gilbert Curry of Nashville registered at the Monongahela House to attend winter sales in New York. He notes the market is flooded with well bred horses lacking speed and predicts prices will rebound as new blood enters the trade. He cites dams of noted fast runners like Nancy Hanks and Stamboul as evidence that top sires matter more than dams now. He sees opportunity for newcomers in a market adjusting upward after deflated prices.
