Back In the Real World

In the real world I just got an e-mail from Dare to Dream saying they had received my payment of $2,300 to buy 2% of a purchase at this Ocala sale. Any horse being bid on just might be mine, or more accurately a small part mine.

I had invested with Dare to Dream several year ago, but the horse had breathing problems and never even made it to the track. It was a Temple City colt they had purchased privately. It was a difficult first experience investing in a partnership, but they handled everything professionally. They had great success with a The Factor colt named Embolden last year.

I was really impressed with what Dare to Dream did in the March Ocala sale. They bought a nice Into Mischief filly named Arrest Warrant for $80,000 (less than 1/2 the stud fee), that had an excuse for a slow work of 22 at the sale. She is a big filly that should easily get two turns.

I hope they will find another bargain here in the real world.

Update: This became Quick Tempo, who broke his maiden at Arlington at first asking
