The Green Monkey's greatest accolade was his record-breaking sale price, which stood as a world record for a public auction Thoroughbred for years. That $16 million bid in 2006 was a testament to his pedigree and physical presence, and it remains one of the highest prices ever paid for a racehorse. While his on-track achievements were minimal, his name is forever etched in bloodstock history as a benchmark for the heights of speculation.
