I think they would have needed 20 years of stud fees to recoup what they would have received from insurance with euthanasia on the track. Far more profitable to have euthanized him, but they felt he had given so much to them, they should try to give back to him and give him a chance to live.

Regardless, his case has given new hope to other leg/hoof injuries and inspirational means of treatment.

The Penn Vet School has received $$$millions in the name of Barbaro. Hopefully it will also help develop new treatments/cures.
