What have I accomplished in the first 90 days of this blog?
- I have made over 150 blog posts to chronicle my journey toward buying a successful race horse.
- I have learned about the operation of the training sales in Ocala and Timonium, and selected a group of horses to follow from each sale.
- I have begun to develop a valuation methodology and selection strategy for training sales and yearling sales
- I have purchased 2-3% interests in four different real horses from three partnership groups
- I have contacted over 30 different partnership operations, and have begun to understand their wide variety of offerings
- I have started to monitor the performance of the different partnership groups
- I learned about the characteristics of all the major Kentucky sires and their stud farms
- I have made two mythical claims
- I have prepared to select mythical yearlings at the big Kentucky sales, and am prepared to evaluate real world offers from different groups
- I have started to understand the data sources needed to select horses
