Purchased as yearlings and two-year-olds at public auctions. Race records through October of their three-year-old year. This record includes a new track record at Saratoga, a NY Turf Writers Leading Stable in USA title, and several Kentucky Derby and World Championship Breeders Cup entries. It was a good start for a client in only its third year of racing!
Since then,
those percentages have held
roughly steady
Another example :–
In 2012 and 2013
we bought 14 horses at auction
as yearlings and 2 year olds
for a major EQB client
(call for details).
The result now
that those horses are 3 year olds
is over 20% graded stakes winners
including GRADE ONE STAKES.
Their average price was $65,000
and they have already
earned over $2,200,000 in purses.
AND what about “off-the-track?”
