it's an insider's game
if I want to breed to an Authentic, I need to either have guaranteed $$ from a partnership selling shares, or be a partner with one of the major players, who has a trainer of record, or is partners with a
Supertrainer.
(i guess that's redundant, and goes for all colts and fillies, but double with certain Stallions)
if I'm doing something with some horseman who is a 2nd generation horseman, or whatever and lives and breathes the trade..., then I go for some Stallion who didn't race for the insiders, and showed perfect fundamentals and a willing heart. Raise a few, then you have a few pets or niche horses, and hopefully get one to the track, and play the game on your level.
