    Excuse me? Do you have any IDEA how much money Runhappy's get have sold for this past couple of years at Keenland? He has sired plenty of foals. It's just that since he only started his career in 2015, his offspring aren't old enough to have raced in the really big races yet. American Pharoah is the same situation.

    Runhappy earned his first win of his 3-year-old campaign in Indiana, starting back after an injury at two, so his foals' participation in the state is a full circle moment. He now stands at Claiborne Farm in Paris, Ky., for $25,000, covering a full book of 135 mares in 2019. From what I understand he's really throwing some pretty babies. Hopefully they'll run as good as he did.
