Cape Town race 8 - pissing money away

Aah... My "alter-ego"! All good Wonder if I would win "Best Hat"?

Only at ascot

Yawn.
Can we stop the 'debate'......
Horse ownership is not and will never be an investment. NEVER.
It is an entertainment choice, a means of socializing, love of racing etc etc choice BUT never an investment choice. It is a gamble.
Yes we do have some wonderful stories of success and riches but essentially it is NOT an investment.

Its known as commercial breeding or money matings.... using a top stallion and putting it to the best performed mares..... Regardless if the mating is compatible.....
