How does that work then if the foal doesn't survive?

The whole thing was a bit of a cluster, and it sounded like Pope was still open to selling the foal for a "reasonable price" aka not the 1.9m it had attracted during the sale?

Only thing I can think of is the previous owner is out of luck or they give him/her a refund. I worked in a Thoroughbred Farm office and we had to make sure the stud fee was paid before the mare went to the sale.
