Who's in Your Barn?
Quote from Lonnie on October 2, 2026, 2:31 PMQuote from Bearcookie56 on October 1, 2026, 1:48 PM@purple-aura, I didn’t mean any ill comments, the truth is I’m fairly new at all this, and I like to learn how the rest of you choose your horses to buy or sell, currently I only own three , and only Doon is currently racing..
I look solely at value (this, of course, doesn't apply to yearlings). I'm looking to get the best horse I can at a value that seems way out of line (lower, or course) than what I feel they're worth and below what others are pricing the same horse in the Private Market.

It seemed like when some of the bigger clients starting dumping chucks of shares they ruined the value of the horses if you were trying to sell.

I've been pretty patient with Hanger One, he seems to have some talent but needs to show up to race. He's getting one more start to show he's worth keeping, if not he's gone.
Niek, I can understand your selling of History Hanover, I was very high on him going into the sale, but even at the price we got him for he's been a disappointment. Once he starts training down again if there doesn't appear to be some big gains I will also move on from him.
I didn't mention them in my original post but I still have four horses outside of The Stable. Like Frankie It Is and Seaing Perfect both got shutdown early with colt soreness, She Stings Twice came away from the NJSS Silver Finals with a slab fracture that required a screw be inserted and Mystique Landing is up for sale as a broodmare with some ongoing knee issues.
We sold Mystique Landing for $45,000 yesterday (I made a few bucks). Not that it means anything but her half sister by Father Patrick sold at Lexington for $27,000 to a Swedish stable (they have that Allegiant blood).

Quote from Bearcookie56 on October 8, 2026, 1:02 PMI had to get rid of my NJ colt shares at par, I didn't want to deal with the license hassle, this morning I get an email from the Stable regarding an Ontario elegible ,Sir Brightside, finally,I said! Of course ,when I got to the portal it had already sold out, it's a bit of a bull crap deal, sort of like bidding on EBAY..

Keep an eye on the private market. You'll likely have to pay a premium though 🙁
