Anthony Macdonald and the Stable 100,000 dollar disaster.
« on: March 17, 2024, 11:48:48 AM »
Steel Cowboy entered in the Preferred Sale races last night at Mohawks 7th race and was clearly lame. Going into the first turn was trying to break (fall down). Drivers were doing everything they could to get around him. The horse finished distanced. Brilliant move by Anthony going into the sale. Doubt the Amish would buy him. Shareholders have lost over 100,000 in seven months. The Stable is clearly showing the industry how to rip-off many people a little at a time.

Always a good strategy to have a good race line going into a sale!   ngc3

Not a huge fan of the concept, and was a skeptic. But it has been a success for him. But your jealousy is glaring.

I don't have a problem with the Stable, generally, but this was a stupid buy. He was a big money yearling that good connections couldn't make go; I don't know what A-Mac thought he was going to do with him. Can't fix no talent and/or poor work ethic.

I like the idea of the stable as a whole...but this made no sense.  It was a bad buy and even worse idea to try race him in that condition.  He won't bring 15k.

He's smart enough to get rid of the junk. The stable is running with great stats everywhere they race

WITH THE MONEY HE HAS BEHIND HIM, AMAC SHOULD JUST BUY PROVEN RACEHORSES THAT 3-4 YEAR OLDS AND UP. YEAH YOU PAY A LITTLE MORE MONEY FOR THEM BUT THEY ARE PROVEN AND YOURE NOT BUYING SOME YEARLING OR TWO YEAR OLD THAT YOU HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR. JUST TAKE THE PROVEN RACEHORSES AND TRY TO KEEP THEM GOING FORWARD AND IN MY OPINION HE'LL DO WAY BETTER. AMAC IS A GOOD GUY

No matter how many facts are presented there are still people who do not understand that Amac only and I do mean only looks out for Amac, but as PT Barnum said...there's a sucker born every minute. Anybody wonder why he keeps posting those you tube videos of the 2 year olds training....he needs more suckers to invest $$$$$ as the well is starting to run dry

Is it a scam if people keep investing or a "business". Same concept as My Racehorse on the TB side. Almost zero chance of cutting a profit but "true ownership". A fool and their money easily parted in a legal way.

What you’re all missing is he never suggests he will make you money.  It’s entertainment.  Golf membership, boat at the yacht club, race horse.  You choose the fraction.  Tell your friends…it’s a great concept.
