Surprised there's not a thread about this:

Abdullah set to sell parts of bloodstock empire

THE landscape of worldwide racing could be about to undergo a seismic shift with reports suggesting Khalid Abdullah, who bred and raced Frankel and now stands him as a stallion, is preparing to offload parts of his bloodstock empire.

However, Abdullah is not expected to turn his back on horseracing should some of his Juddmonte Farms empire be sold.

A hugely successful operation about to call time? Must admit I'm not the biggest flat fan so needless to say wouldn't know too much about what goes on "behind the scenes" at Juddemonte but saw this quote elsewhere:

KA has always made it clear he wouldn't leave Juddmonte to his children as they have no interest in racing, and he would prefer it to go as a continuing concern than a dispersal. There's only really Sheikh Fahad Al Thani who could afford to buy it.

It would be a shame to see the pink sash disappear . With the current godolphin turmoil and the worlwide economic problems , the game really needs new entrants badly.

Values will drop if there is no realistic oppostion to Coolmore.

Overthelast

That Qatar Racing seem to be buying up all & sundry at the moment. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pink Sash gets replaced by Burgandy Silks & they buy up some of the breeding empire.

I'm thinking about making a bid for a 51% share of Dansili.
