Some of the things that £175K will buy are …
Four-bed terrace
New Aston Martin DB9
180 ounces of gold
788 grams of white truffle
63 grams of plutonium

Or if you own a racehorse mare then it will buy you a 5-minute ‘visit’ to Frankel (up 40% on the 2017 price of £125K).

Five minutes with Frankel or a four-bed terrace - which is better value?

Even if Frankel covered only one paying mare, he'd still earn more than the prime minister – opinions vary as to who is more effective at their job.

The bump in stud fee launches Frankel alongside the world's top footballers in terms of earnings potential – think Gareth Bale and the ‘reputed’ £34 million a year he pockets at Real Madrid.

Don't you just love knowing what the uber-rich are willing to spend their money on.

Please note that this is on a NFNF basis - no foal no fee. In effect if Frankel fires a blank - money back.

Actually firing very few blanks - though clearly no guarantee offspring will inherit any talent. Indeed - yesterday first Frankel offspring sent hurdling because very disappointing on the flat - however it did win!
