Also, even with good bloodlines your horse could be a dud. I know a guy who bought a horse who had great bloodlines then as it matured would trot with his front legs but gallop in the backComment -

#42What you do is put the horse barn near kids and then sell them apples and carrots at 300% markup and make money on feeding the horse.Comment -

#43I've also owned 2 racehorses a few years back. The best thing to do if you're starting out is find some people who want to go in with you, at least 8 people, and learn the ropes from there. You are looking at around 20K per year to keep and race a horse. Keep in mind that money could comeback if you have a horse that stays healthy and races once a month about 9 month's out of the year. The main goal is to get most of your money back or get it to break even. If you do better than that, then that's the bonus. You will have to take out an owners license, which is a little over a hundred bucks for 2 years, after that you have to renew. It has perks like free entry to the track with a program every time you go along with free parking. It's a ton of fun. You may have to be patient with your first runner if you buy him or her as a two year old like I did, I waited 10 month's for my first race. Got 3rd. next race 3 weeks later, he won. I was so stoked.
Good luck in your venture.Comment -

#47Shute you don't have time to own a horse. Don't do it because you know jack shit about them and won't be able to afford the cost. Unless you own a good amount of acres on ranch land you are looking at thousands and thousands of dollars a month and that doesn't even consider buying a horse you are training to race.Comment -

But isn't she 2 now?
Horses are typically broken in the fall /winter of their yearling year and as they turn 2.
Did you buy her as a weanling?
Good Luck with her.Comment -

#69A broken horse?
nah dog you need a horse that is buck wild and unpredictable
a horse with a little edge and a mean streak
you talk about an adrenaline rush
get you a football helmet, knee pads and see how long you can last on a wild horse going 50 mph
If nothing else it would make one helluva youtube videoComment -
