End of the year.. good or bad time to claim one?
« on: November 05, 2018, 03:41:13 PM »
Often wondered if it’s the best or worst time of year to pick one up?  The good?  Maybe someone looking to unload at a better than normal tag.  The bad?.... the horse is exhausted and won’t be able to handle the winter racing and it’s nothing but paying the training bills for the winter.  Thoughts?

lots of money to be made in the winter
buy one at the mixed sale or claim some of the three year olds that are in for a tag

Make sure you claim the 3yos before Dec. 31 so you pay the 50% juice...that's usually a good strategy.

  • Trigger: The BigM on life support, no casino, no good, maybe gets the casino and closes racing down.  Without the BigM The SBOANJ might as well be on Mars!  The only thing that stinks more in NJ than Jiffy Jeff & Fatso, is the smell!  ;D
