Making Money From Buying And Selling Horses Walkthrough
Its amazing how cheap well bred 2yo become when they bomb first time up
You can pick up a 2yo by a g1 winner for very little at a fraction of the price
you would pay for a unraced 2yo by a g1 winner.
so i thought id share my advice on making money in the game and share
some of my successes trading horses.
Ok So what to do
1) You want to skip until around April/May when the 2yo have started to run
2) once there goto the thursday auction we are looking for 2yo that have had at least a run
if there are none go to the next week and look again
3) So i have found as you can see below a 2yo that fits the criteria who did not perform well so
take alook at the race summary and see if there was a reason for the bad run as you can see below
there were a few reason why this 2yo did not perform well he got hampered and got outpaced being a
1m5 horse in a 5f Maiden he probably needs a 1m1f or 1m2f maiden
4) Buy the horse you should get him cheap enough i got this one for £11,000 i have bought some for as little as £5000
5) as you can see he is a real stayer and had no chance in a 5 furlong maiden he has some nice stats too but not a world
beater.
6) Now we need to race him we need either to get his rating up or win a race so we can make a nice profit on him
its amazing how much money a 1 in the form can add. I always look for small field races start looking for maidens
see if you can find one at ideal distance with less than 6 runner if not look for handicaps.
7) As you can see did not take me long to find a race for him and he only has 4 rivals so perfect for us
I always stick my claimer on to take off a valuable 7 pounds in Maidens and Handicaps if you dont have one
hire one in the Apprentice screen.
8> Lets go Racing and hope for the best the distance is ideal and the opposition does not look too difficult
he should finish in the top 2 at least here he has had 2 months since his last run so all should be perfect
Opened up 2nd fav but got good market support (Not Me) Coped with paddock fine lets race
9 As you can see he got beat but his rating went up so its onto the next race i think i will step him up to 1m2
10 he had a few more runs got outpaced stuck him in 1m2 maiden with all his opponents unraced
and he scooted up RIGHT of to the Austin expecting A BIG Profit after that romp 00000s
11 auction time and the hammer came down at BOOM £116k Thats a Profit of a whopping £105,000 Profit
Here are a couple of examples of my successes trading
Hope this has been helpful
