I'm part owner of Tactical Mounds.

Welcome to the Forum!

You've got a good one!

In response to the yearling purchases. Anthony makes many pre-sale videos. Highlights horses he is interested in. Some are bought some are not and some horses not mentioned get purchased. Also sets up buckets, an example pay $1,000 get 3-5 horses. You do not know what horses you will get. After the people who purchased the buckets get their horses, they get first crack at the remaining shares and then the rest of the shares (if any) are open to everyone.

Welcome to the Forum!!

Thank you for the explanation on "buckets".  I wasn't sure what he meant by that.

We have three horses in common, Freedom Hill, Im Fancy Like, and La Doriane.  I'm looking forward to La Doriane's first start.  The other two are rock solid (throw out Freedom Hill's last race).

Need to time my lunch on Thursday, so I can watch La D. Lucky I got in on time to purchase. The new horses get sold out quick. Also seems that there seems to be a bit of scalping going on. See new horses get put on the resale market right away at higher prices.

In a semi-recent video @Amac mentioned that phenomenon of commoditizing the marketplace by transactionalizing or "scalping" as you called it, and how it's frowned upon.  Those people aren't horse people. They just want to use the market to make a quick buck. 

I see it going on with Tenacious Hanover and Chimebelle now. 

I not a fan of the "scalping" also.  It's kind of against the spirit of what the Stable.ca was set up to be.

Oh Hill No and High High Hopes. First horse was Oftom a few years ago. Great way to be involved with racing!

I have my eyes on Oh Hill No.  I feel she's going to be a very good one.

Agreed but I wouldn’t try to regulate it.  If anything, we just need to stay educated and disciplined as buyers.  Keeping in mind the business model of keeping a horse if it is stakes caliber potential or fits conditioned events at one of the jurisdictions, you have a reasonable estimate how long AMac will keep the horse.

I do see some improvement in the private market as we work to the end of summer.  I would be more comfortable making purchases if I was in a position to visit periodically though.

And most importantly, I have to give my wife time to adjust to retirement before going on a spending spree.🤪. Best of luck to all of you and thanks for the recent influx of forum participants!
