I think this is literally the most transparent way of owning any kind of competition horse
This is sounding pretty good. I am very tempted.
It is sort of why I play the lotteryâI know I will probably never win, but I justify it because it is part of my entertainment budgetâit is not my retirement plan.

It shouldnât be part of your retirement plan but it sure is fun!!
MRH has a number of horses in a range of share prices available from on the track to still a few months away⊠(how am I doing??? )
Whatâs the general opinion here of the Upstart filly? She kind of seemed to be going through a late stage case of the uglies when her listing first went up, but I like the comments about her work at the sales and her consignor.
From the front view posted itâs hard to see if sheâs a little offset or if thatâs the hind legs making it look that way. The $450k price tag seems to indicate itâs the photo angle.
Yaya, the ownership details vary depending on the horse.
I bought a share of Monomoy Girl, who is already a very successful racehorse. She was sold after the Breederâs Cup last year, and everyone expected her to be retired, but they decided to run her for one more year and did this offering. They wonât race her more than this year, hence my comment about it being one year and being like part of a fan club where I get âexclusive accessâ.
But the groupâs other offerings, ie the young racehorses, have different setups where your one-time payment is good for the entire racing career, they describe them in detail before you make a purchase.
Have we sucked you in yet???
Yup.
I just need time to review the offerings and make a decision.
Looking forward to see what you settle on. (too bad no good devilish grin emoji)
What is fun is there is a range of share prices and, while you donât have any say in who the trainer is, if there is a trainer you like or donât, that could help sway a decision.
Just bought a share of Ari the Adventurer 19. Like the damâs breeding.
I think that they should give ME a share, just for starting this thread, and enabling!
Lemme know how that works out for you
Congrats
Now have fun watching the updates and his progress on the track!
Good choice. Looks like his shares have been completely sold as he is no longer on the Buy page.
Congrats again!
ugh, you guys are such enablers. I have 2 shares of the Tapit colt now. Iâm tickled to âownâ a thoroughbred again LOL.
and now heavily debating grabbin a share of the Echo Warrior colt to have something on the local circuit to watch.
Heâs only $58/share
You need a local horse. I donât recall but I think there are opportunities for MRH âownersâ to get into the winners circle. Iâd contact MRH and ask⊠I do know as MRH owner you arenât really a ârealâ owner with open access to the backstretch etc
That is why I bought one on the NY circuit, which is near where I live. If he ever gets to a race, I could go see it, on my dime.
sigh. OK you win. I got a share of him. It helped that his damsire is Tiznow. I the Tiz horses
Has anyone bought into the Mrs Whistler filly?
Just got notice that they has listed her price & share percentage incorrectly.
So instead of owning 0.01 share, it is now 0.05
Iâll take it LOL
Not quite correct.
Mrs. Whistlerâs actual share price and percentage have always been $137 for .05%
What was incorrect was the email that MRH sent out about the current (they called them ânewâ) offerings. MRH fairly quickly sent out a second email about the âincorrectâ price. Incorrect in the email only They canât change the share price or percentage.
To answer your question, I bought share(s) in Mrs Whistler on May 13 and paid the above price (not the incorrect price in the email).
I could have sworn when I purchased my shares for her, it was listed as .01.
Not that it matters in the end
