It is young to collect, but I can see the sense behind it. If the plan all along was to build the hype and promote him young as a breeding stallion, well, what a pain in the butt to collect those booking fees then fail a BSE. If they were going to promote him as an unproven stallion (here unproven used as meaning sired no foals) they need at least that to back them up. Wierd, but I see why they did it.
