New York bred for Dee Tee Stables?

Cannon Shell · #1 05-07-2007, 01:44 PM

As Steve stated before getting an acceptable horse in our likely price range is going to be difficult if we limit ourselves to NY breds. We would need to gamble on a physical wreck or get really lucky. I dont like depending on luck and I want to be upfront with everyone before we start raising funds. I think that I can find a nice NY bred yearling for a minimal cost. But trying to find a NY bred for sale that is actually worth $25000 is almost impossible.

Sumwon is going to work on Wed. Probably 1/2 mile in around 50-51.

is there a 2yo sale of ny breds?

Is there a seperate sale for NYB Yearlings or are they entered as part of the standard sales?

I would be curious to look over last year's results if there is a particular auction we would target.

Thanks!

The Saratoga sale is called the preferred sale because the horses must meet some criteria. There is another open sale also but it is really spotty.

Depending on the prospectus I'd be interested in a NY bred.

I am so jealous that you get to stop by and watch the works.

This is the part I get to enjoy in exchange for the partnership!

But, who knows where Sumwon will be stabled in the fall, or where the next Dee Tee horse will be ... so I'm trying to enjoy it now, when I can

well if worst comes to worst we could always start from scratch and make our own NY bred

Yeah but alot of bad things can happen with a yearling before it hits the track.

You mean other than spending every waking (and most sleeping) hours trying to find new ways to get hung up, cast, impaled, colicked, broken, and cut up?

Chuck,

Can you give us a ballpark breakdown of what the costs would be to train a yearling up to a race, please?

Plenty of 2 yr olds in the Timonium Fas-Tip sale catalog.......8-)

Thanks!

assuming we bought one in August or Sept...
If I break the horse and do all of its early training in KY then it will be pretty minimal. If we send it to Ocala then it gets more costly. If we assume that a NYB race for 2 yo's wont go until July (possible) then there is no rush to get the horse to the track before May.

Timonium is a good sale

I for one am really interested in the group purchasing a NYB yearling. I've learned so much from the partnership for Sumwon. This would be a chance to learn about what it goes in to buying a younger horse and getting it ready for the races.

Chuck, I know you've had to deal with all of Sumwon's bad habits. This would be a way of making sure those bad habits don't develop in the first place.

It would be an exercise in patience. Having to wait almost a whole year before seeing the horse run in a race. But if you pick a good one, Chuck, this would be a chance for something special. Maybe even the BC Juvenile (at Santa Anita in 2008). Hey, I wouldn't even have to get on a plane. Cool.

The above sounds like a pretty darn good plan. I especially like the part about picking out something nice but reasonable, then taking the time to do it right - it won't end up having to be re-trained like Sumwon.
