It was listed at $7,500 but that is a big jump. I'm not sure Coil is worth upping it THAT much.

I went to http://www.threechimneys.com/ but could not find any explanation for the stud fee. Could you please be more specific about where on the Three Chimneys site it's posted? Thank you.

For the record, last February I received a letter from Three Chimneys offering Point Given at $7500-LF and $3000-NG. Bargain prices IMO for an exceptionally fast champion (5th fastest Belmont) and proven sire.

It also offered Red Giant at $1000-NG which I thought was the steal of steals for a Gr-I winner with a world record for 10f on the turf.

The investor actually bought Point Given and set the fee.
