I dont for the life of me understand these West Point " investors", as Finley refers to them.
Alot of them are putting up major coin to purchase a piece of a horse that has been doubled in price on the buy-in. If an owner is looking to get into the game and has a 100k-200k as a budget, they could get so much more for their money on their own with a capable horseman. Whether that be thru buying at a sale or high end claims.
Granted they are responsible for 100% of the training bills but, they get the lions share of the winnings. People can say that WP has been great for the game and all that but, they arent doing clients any favors.
Hats off to Terry Finley, he is playing this great game on a very high level on someone else money and all the while getting filthy rich.
