Hey guys, I'm new to the site, I've been reading posts for awhile now but never posted. So here is the first one. I'm 20
live in Alberta, Canada, and have a business I am looking to get a few investors for.

I have been a racing fan since I was a little kid, since I was about 12 I've always wanted to own a racehorse. Now I do.
But I want to expand. For that I need some more money. I have decided to give some other people that may not be able
to afford something like owning a race horse the chance at that. I am selling shares in race horses at very affordable prices.
They range from as small as $200 and up to $2000. There are about 25 different choices in investments to pick from. When
you buy a share you are buying a percentage of the horse(s). With that you will get a % of the winnings the horse(s) produce.
You will also get a percentage of the claim (will explain this more later) price. The horse racing industry is expensive and
unpredicatable but if you know what your doing it is VERY profitable.

What does your money get you, and how do you make money?

1. A percentage of a horse(s)
- You will get a percentage (comparable to the percentage you own) of all winnings of the horse(s)
- You will get a percentage of the claiming price (the amount paid by another owner to buy the horse which is usually close to what
was initially paid for the horse).
2. You will have the thrill of owning a race horse and the chance to watch him compete to make you money.
3. You will also receive a copy of any winner circle photos of your horse(s) after they win.

The average racehorse costs about $20,000-$25,000 a year to have. That pays for feed, vet bills, equipment, trainers, boarding, transportation.

We will take care of everything, all you have to do is sit at home, watch the races, and wait for the checks in the mail!

I am setting up a website that will be up and running in the coming months where you will be able to watch highlights, check out pictures, learn
more about your horse(s), check stats, talk to fellow investors and even buy/sell/trade shares and more.

The last thing I should say is I am putting my money where my mouth is. Me & or the trainer of each horse will own atleast 25% of each horse.

first of all welcome to ye

secondly, observe the golden rule of capital seekers and never start threads with "I am looking to get a few investors"

thirdly, the market for bloodstock is extremely mature and well developed. there are established events and channels to do what you're trying to do. go away. you should be flogging your ideas at some country club not an Internet forum.

Let's not be entirely presumptive. I actually can see owning race horses being a part of even the layman's well diversified portfolio. I wouldn't recommend putting a high proportion of your net worth into such an investment, but nonetheless this is something that can provide above equity market returns (with commensurate risk profiles).

The key here (and the difficulty with what he's pitching) is in the management of such a venture. My dad's best friend has been in the industry for over 25 years and has a company that does exactly that. Despite his wealth of experience and connections in the racing industry, his venture isn't a slam dunk year to year. I would be hard pressed to get into something like this without seeing consistent returns from management in this type of venture. Nonethless, it could be something of interest to everyday investors.

I'd be asking for horse(s) owned and performance over the years (easily verifiable via Daily Racing Forum online). It's hard to bank on someone unproven, but for the right ownership structure I'd be interested.

My parents have owned multiple horses and unless it wins a lot of races it's just another debt that's going to cost you a lot of money if the horse isn't that successful and theirs not a big chance that your horse that you choose is going to be on the winning horses, Sorry to disapoint to you.
