I'm Fancy Like to New York (Yonkers Raceway)

For those of us living in the New York Tri-State area who have been longing to get a horse to race near us, TheStable.ca has just given us that opportunity by moving I'm Fancy Like to Yonkers Raceway.  She will make her first start on Tuesday, September 3, 2024.  And she drew the rail to boot!

There are 28 shares available as of this writing on the Private Market.  Though 20 of the shares are mispriced, and probably the owner meant to post them at $375 for each (instead they multiplied 20 * $375 and priced them at $7500, not realizing the listing price should have been for EACH share and not the total value).

All of the available shares are priced well above fair market value.  I can only pray that all the owners become New York State licensed of divest themselves of their shares prior to Tuesday.

I would not say that shares are well over fair market value.

Claiming tag $34,000

Assume win (ok big assumption but horse is favored $7,500 x .9 [trainer/driver commission] = $6,750

so $40,750 / .74 [exchange rate] = $55,068 or $551 per share

I saw shares listed at $500 and $540

If the $375 is correct price (perhaps person was giving a message of I am not selling, at 20 shares they probably should have been part if discussion)

But $375 is below market value

I do not see any shares currently listed so perhaps sold.

 

If you base fair value for the horse at $30,000 USD, which is what the horse could have been bought for it, it comes out to $300/share USD or 1.348 * $300USD = $404.40 CAD.

BTW, I'm Fancy Like is LOCKED, so that's why you're not seeing any shares on the Private Market.  I hope that something was worked out prior to locking the horse.

I pray the horse will race, and I'm glad I own two shares 🙂

Good luck to you and all owners on both fronts.

  1.  That there is no eligibility issues due to licensing of owners
  2. she takes her 1/2 mile grittiness to Yonkers 

It would be fantastic to see you all in the winner’s circle.
