By Ericka Marsh


Money is invested in various business opportunities by lots of people. Through the investments, more money can be gained. Their lifestyles can also be improved.

While most people will invest in things, others will invest in animals. For horse racing fanatics, they usually buy a racehorse and accumulate wins. Through their wins, they can earn profits. There are a number of factors that these purchasers should take into account whenever they will purchase these breeds.

If they have no idea regarding how this endeavor can be started, advices can be asked by the individuals from persons who have thoroughbreds already. Some advices can be provided by these persons, who might be their relatives, friends, or colleagues, that could be utilized by the owners whenever their own breeds will be taken care of. Some advices can also be asked from the horse trainers who have lots of experiences already related to the field.

Prior to purchasing this breed, the buyer should be having the knowledge necessary in making this purchase. This way, he could be obtaining the one that suits his needs. If he has no prior knowledge, he could be hiring a bloodstock agent, instead. This agent typically earns commissions in buying and selling thoroughbreds representing the purchaser. He should be considering several factors, like legality, experiences, expertise, or others, when selecting an agent.

The entire costs of this endeavor should be considered by the buyers. The prices quoted by the sellers for the breeds should be checked. The amounts that will be spent when important things will be bought for the breeds should also be considered. Feeds, supplements, vaccinations, and others are included in these things. These purchasers should ensure that enough budgets are available to have these expenses covered.

There are three main ways that the buyers can employ so that they can make their purchases. They can acquire the breeds through claiming races, through auctions, and through direct purchases. In claiming races, the horses will have to run races and the veterinarians cannot inspect their conditions. In auctions, the organizers will classify these horses into different categories and the agents can view them at these events. In direct purchases, veterinarians can inspect the animals before the buyers will purchase them at their negotiated prices.

Once these thoroughbreds are possessed, good trainers should be hired by the owners. The animals will be trained and prepared by the professionals for those races that will be participated in by them. Those with favorable reputations should be looked for by the owners so that good conditions for the racehorses can be expected.

They should register these animals with certain jockey clubs. This way, they will be able to receive racing licenses. These licenses will allow them to participate in various races. Different states enact different policies to control these events. The owners should know the registration requirements in their respective places.

Colors should be applied for by the owners with these clubs. These colors will be used and worn by the jockeys whenever their horses will race. Their breeds can be distinguished from other owners through these colors.
