Share the Upside Program

"The late Spendthrift owner B. Wayne Hughes pioneered the innovative 'Share the Upside' program. In short, breeders who use new stallions selected to participate in the program for two consecutive years receive a free lifetime breeding right. Not every stallion pans out--that's just the nature of the game--but Into Mischief and Goldencents certainly have."
