How does that process take place? Do you "hire" the jockey you want or is there a pool of them that get their ride based on something like a lottery?
Aspy knows a lot more than I do, but a friend of mine has a race horse. He use to run it in Illinois, but now he runs it at Evangeline Downs in Opelousas. He has won a few races and placed & showed a few times.. And he hasn't turned a profit yet. Me and this dude shares a fantasy football team in a "big money" league. A few years ago we made it to the Super Bowl and the guy we were playing against offered a chance to split the pot and we agreed.. After splitting our earnings, we each got.. I think somewhere around $1300 and when he came get his share from me the first thing he said was "I needed this money, I have to pay for a few things with my horse"..
I don't know how he manages his horse business or what, but I just remember thinking "damn, if that dude is depending on fantasy football earning to pay for his horse.. Something seems wrong"

It is very hard to turn a profit unless you have a bunch of horses and start out with a bunch of money.

A friend of mine bought a share in a thoroughbred that was stabled and raced mostly in Hot Springs, AR. He said even though the horse had some success at the track he never realized a profit on his investment.

Happy lunch. I'm finally eating.
Salad.
Yeah, Kenneth is definitely not profitable

I had some lunch today....
Hi there buddy. I hope you had a good day. You are a great friend to help your bud set stuff up in that bitter cold down there....
Email me the details on 'Kenneth'...got here late and didn't see the clues...and don't think I could have figured it out regardless...I don't have a lot horse betting knowledge
But I might figure a way to put a few dollars down...
