he set a world record at Northfield Park with the Stable.ca trainer
which is still his lifetime mark


from the 7 hole at scioto he was 5th in his 2 year old Stakes Super Final
from the 8 hole at Northfield he was 3rd in his 3 year old Stakes Super Final
(his biggest purse check to date)

$16,000 yearling
from 23 starts for the stable.ca trainer
$185,000

yeah he was pretty terrible before he went to Erv 😂

Last year the horses made approx 1.5 million inc horses sent to other trainers from 160 total. That's like 9500 per horse. And what is the training fee per month 4-5 k plus plus plus for travel etc.

So any of these horses arent fully subscribed so i wonder what happens to the residuals.

the stable is like a  restaurant menu, you dont order everything
you can pick and choose what horses you want and what you can afford
you can even determine how much you would like to pay based on the buy/sell board
its like the stock market, some smart people make money while others just continually lose
and who cares who trains the horses, they are under the stable umbrella and the cash flows through
you cant selectively pick  apart just certain areas of the stable that support your argument

if i had a reasonable % of a horse being sold i would think you due your due diligence to protect yourself

i suspect you are suggesting there was a side deal done to  amac  as a broker of the deal , could be , who knows wouldnt be the first or the last time

Well for someone who declares he's all about transparency there are many things wrong with the operation.

1. Not disclosing full details of financial transactions (novice owners are putting their trust that everything is legit.
2. Conflict of interest. Artificially inflates market price of horses, involving his uncles horse (not disclosed) and new owners relying on said appraisal of horses value.
3. Not doing right by the horse. Has entered horses into BC Events and major stakes races who have no hope , ruining the horse and subjecting it to possible injury all the while stringing the ownership group to pony up the 7k to declare just for media attention and personal glory.

How did that Lincoln James purchase turn  out just to race it like a stock car in the Gold Cup and Saucer now it cant beat a nw of a ham n cheese sandwich race.

Brown Jug there are 42 horses with a whole lot of shares. Do the math on each and you will be amazed on what has to have been covered to pay consignments and unpaid training that gets accrue. These go unsold into Mar 15 and stake payments are due the price of shares sky rocket even further and the 1% people aren't going to pluck down 500, 600, 700 a share. Plus a lot of those 1% owners can be stuck in one of the 45 or 50 two year olds being held over to race at 3. Other then 7 or 8 those owners are already underwater and aren't looking to add to more unforeseen debt in the word of this being a entertainment theme.

I have never seen anyone attract more jealousy than Anthony M.

Owning race horses is a financial loser.    Everyone knows it.   
This guy simply found a way to allow more folks to get involved, at a level they are prepared to lose at.

Slim I don't think it's jealousy it's people talking about who got burned in a pyramid scam. One night at Mohawk during the summer a bunch of us were at the bar and Anthony who had nothing in that night thought he could sit down and join us until Hank told him to fuck off. A few others heard Hank and as Anthony was walking away they started clapping.

He really could have made this a great thing if he didnt think of himself first.

Would u charge a training bill for a dead horse or maybe say these owners suffered enough ill just eat this months training bill....

Title: Re: thestable.ca
Post by: horses first on December 17, 2019, 01:15:43 PM
Slim not sure it's jealousy but if you build something the wise thing would be to start small stay small. Build as you go. Last year was a big expansion and a keeping of a large number of 2 yr olds that didn't fair well. Then come back and buy another 60 something yearlings. He is hoping that ones that have been kept and ones that need to be bought that his 700 or so clients are going to build on a debt they really can't get out of unless it's dumped for pennies on the $. Once this happens over and over he will have a issue buying these value type horses. Sure he will have 10-15% of those horse produce something. Nobody cares if the guy makes somethikng training and driving.
Title: Re: thestable.ca
Post by: slimshady on December 17, 2019, 01:21:29 PM
I don't know the guy.
I don't own any shares with him.

I would want to hear the other side of the story for the little things.
I train and feed a horse from June 1 to June 22nd and it drops dead, I don't see any reason there shouldn't be a training bill for the part of the month the horse was trained and fed.
It's a ponzi scheme!   How is that?    He buys a horse.   You choose to take a percentage.  Every horse is an investment in itself.

Now, anyone that would pay 4 - 5k a month training for a $12k horse needs to rethink their position.  However, if it is all transparent, no one forces you to get involved.     I think he is filling an entertainment niche that everyone thought was a stupid idea, now some of them wish they had of thought of it first.
Title: Re: thestable.ca
Post by: slimshady on December 17, 2019, 01:27:11 PM
Horses First   ....   I understand what you are saying.   When it is small, everyone feels they are getting attention and are the inside of the business.   You get too big and you start relying on other folks to have the same personality and time to make investors feel a part of something fun, interesting and worth the money. 
Time will tell.
You can't make it work without repeat investors and excellent word of mouth advertising. 

As for getting your money back when you sell a horse.  How often does that happen.  Many are happy to get a few grand from the Mennonites.   
Title: Re: thestable.ca
Post by: Brown jug on December 17, 2019, 01:36:10 PM
like any business cash flow is king
people only have so much "entertainment " cash to throw at the horses
if they have been in for a year or two and not done well  than they will pull back
clearly it is more fun if your horse does well and wins a few races
2020 is a critical year , despite what some may say on this site there is a number of very good/decent 3 and 4 year olds racing as well as a number of 2 yr olds coming back at 3 next year and the majority of them must be successful unlike some in the past
some people have been investing for a year or two and now need/want to see some kind of a return, not a huge profit but just a break from paying out every month 
time will tell
Title: Re: thestable.ca
Post by: horses first on December 17, 2019, 01:49:07 PM
Slim...guarantee when these horses ship off and head to other trainers those bills go up toward that 4k or higher. They are now racing so you have paddock fees, shipping, stall rent in some places go up, and a stake entry fee at times. But again, I emphasize the ones they carried over making 10k or less and there where 30 or more. They are compounding cost at least another 7 months of training bills more stake payments and if these horses don't improve a lot they will be sold for less as a 3 yr old with no stake aspirations that have been paid for last 2 years.

Here is one ? how many new clients from last year to this year. I don't think it's a staggering number and not a number you want when you have over 100-120 head. Again many mention ponzi scheme and the one thing you need is the ability to add more money.

Brkn Polee  ...   Do you know for a fact  that The Stable owes sales agencies money?   If not, that's not a great statement to make.

Horses First  ....   Ponzi scheme insinuates the last guy in is paying people that got in earlier.  I don't think that is true.   Each horse is an investment in of itself.  Bob buying into a horse in 2017 has nothing to do with my financial commitment buying a horse in 2019. 

Why is he spending less?     Great question.    Maybe it is that first purchase payment that has to be made.  Maybe the soft spot in the model is finding folks willing to lay down 10% up front for a $12k horse vs a $40k horse.    To many folks, there is a huge difference between coming up with 1200 vs 4000.
Or, maybe he's low on cash and can't afford more expensive horses.   Especially when you are buying first, then trying to sell the shares.   There can be a significant gap for The Stable between $$ out for the purchase and $$ back in when you sell the shares.

Clearly you are a disgruntled person who went from singing their praises to just being a knob.   Sebastian K's - there are a total of 4 of them, none over $20k and 3 of the 4 are turning three this year (per their site).  At least say he went in on Muscle Mass since they have  7 of them (mind you two of them are racehorses). 
Somehow 4 doesnt seem like all in to me - if anything since he only bought one this year and three the year before it would be the other way around??

Clearly you are a disgruntled person who went from singing their praises to just being a knob.   Sebastian K's - there are a total of 4 of them, none over $20k and 3 of the 4 are turning three this year (per their site).  At least say he went in on Muscle Mass since they have  7 of them (mind you two of them are racehorses). 
Somehow 4 doesnt seem like all in to me - if anything since he only bought one this year and three the year before it would be the other way around??

yes i went from singing his praises to poitning out my displeasure

you are exactly right
that is exactly the problem. had he done things the right way i would have stayed singing his praises...
i am in the know here..not just someone coming along giving their 2 cents

Food for thought 42 yearlings with shares available not all are the stables some sent by breeders. However majority are and with whatever monthly charges added since bought and moved to CA. 690k in CDN dollars are available to buy. So jump right in. Of that money horses from the Jug sale, Lex sale, and Hoosier classic have had to be paid by now. Does he get extended credit? Good question.

As far as what there buying just look at the over all % of the industry. Your best sires ave at best 35% earners of 50k. 23% over 100k. For the most part the stable isn't buying from the crop of the best sires. Which also means the better mares. They look for value or horses that have a flaw or slip through a crack. Maybe younger new sires. They are buying toward the bottom end of the yearlings being offered for the year. Say Father Patrick has 80 yearlings to sell the first 40 or 50 aren't near the budget unless it's agreed upon by certain owners. Sure the bottom end can win and they do. But that's the landscape invest in animals that are cheaper to keep the cost lower and also keeping the pressure from owners why a 70k horse can't beat nw1. Because many of those horses on the other side of the spectrum can't.

Slim I referred to ponzi scheme as mentioned. My take how long can u take in $$$ by calling it entertainment? The consumer form of entertainment maybe once a week, twice a month, or even a vacation once a year. Paying monthly for something they may or may not happen at a racetrack is more a stress that's followed with a bill. That only last so long.

Mazola...It's a forum with open discussion on the blueprint of the stable and fractional ownership. How it works or it doesn't. No doubt if it works it's good for the game. But does it if your to big in a sport that has a poor ROI? How does one make it last then. All good questions to discuss.

Unfortunately some have already have a bad experience and that leans into the discussion. Or how the guy drives. I'd rather not see that stuff and stick to the content. Is it really sustainable buying the cheaper horses and hope 5 or 6 are really good and the other 50 or more suck. Then tout the success of a handful. Because that's about anyone in the business. You get a good one once every 1 or 2 out of 10.

Mazola I've been in this game a long time and always was there for a fellow horseman who was down in his luck. I have a farm where 4 small timers get to train their horses and I don't take a dime off them they repay with helping on the upkeep. These guys are all honest horsemen with no drugs but have a hard time because of the cheats. My problem is scam artists like Anthony and that's my opinion end of story.

Brkn Polee  ...   Do you know for a fact  that The Stable owes sales agencies money?   If not, that's not a great statement to make.

Horses First  ....   Ponzi scheme insinuates the last guy in is paying people that got in earlier.  I don't think that is true.   Each horse is an investment in of itself.  Bob buying into a horse in 2017 has nothing to do with my financial commitment buying a horse in 2019. 

Why is he spending less?     Great question.    Maybe it is that first purchase payment that has to be made.  Maybe the soft spot in the model is finding folks willing to lay down 10% up front for a $12k horse vs a $40k horse.    To many folks, there is a huge difference between coming up with 1200 vs 4000.
Or, maybe he's low on cash and can't afford more expensive horses.   Especially when you are buying first, then trying to sell the shares.   There can be a significant gap for The Stable between $$ out for the purchase and $$ back in when you sell the shares.

Can't speak to this year but yes he racked up big balances outstanding to the sales agencies. So why is he afforded that opportunity and others not. Plus he may have outbid you for a yearling you were after prepared to go to 45k for but he bids it up to 55k to attain it knowing full well he didnt have to fork over the money.

well in fairness, I think Landmark and the new one get some "free advertising" as well via Standardbred Canada.  so if the objective is to promote via fractional ownership then i think its close in terms of "notifications". 

I would like to see the other groups do more "general updates"; Or is it that those groups are sold and closed and some at thestable.ca    are not?

enjoy the opinions
the beauty is that people who want to get in horse racing have options
if you dont like the stable go to landmark etc
if you dont like fractional ownership get a few buddies and go to a trainer and claim or buy one
yes the stable certainly buys yearlings on the low end
however this year there was a few that were bought  for $40k usa or higher which is a decent price to pay
nobody is being forced to join and no one is being promised unrealistic roi or any roi for that matter
clearly some people find the stables . ca format enjoyable for now
calling amac a scam artist is incorrect, he has not made financial promises or other kinds that he has reneged on
do you own due diligence, make your own decisions, protect your self

The stable is individual horses not a combined business, so only a percentage of the horses will profit. You guys are judging the whole stable which everyone knows does not profit for everyone. So you guys are beating the thing up knowing that’s not what he’s selling(hope some of you idiots know this). He buys 60 yearlings a year or so how many make profit anyways? Should have run it as a full business with stock purchase on the whole stable and bought some raceway horses first then babies. Otherwise just a few will profit in some horses. Great concept except each horse is a individual stable, a few get lucky and rest hope to get the next one.

So what is best for the owners? They buy into some of the slugs then what do you want him to Amish or sell the horses for crap and say hey sorry this one won’t do? If he does that than everyone will bitch even more.
When people buy babies they are buying a dream so do make a stake race and some are just raceway horses. That’s why most big stables race horses and buy babies on top of that. You can’t do that when you buy only babies and give people a choice of buying into 1 or 2 only. There is no revenue to support the babies in training from raceway stock. So complaining is stupid because you should know that your buying a dream that most don’t pan out. Plus your buying babies against way more accomplished stables that have raceway horses supporting the baby bills.

I had issue with him turning down reasonable offers of me trying to buy his hirses, only to be sold for less at a later date and with a further trainung bill for him..
Anf issue with being charged a traing bill for a dead horse
Yes i guess you could charhe for a dead horses trzing but should you. Considering the owner is already out the price of the horse, staking paymemts and prior 8 months traing bills?

If the horses bill for the month was 6k and you owned 25% your end of the bill was 1,500 if I'm not mistaken, correct me if I'm wrong.

I think it was closer to 1800 for 25 percent but yes...

you buy  babies to stake them

if you don't want to stake them accordingly then don't buy babies

over staking them if they start training down good in jan feb and march is no brainer

most down make stakes races but if you under stake them it will kick in the ass one time you come up with a nice horse..
