Title: THIS TELLS IT ALL
Post by: Locked in with pace on March 30, 2025, 10:57:43 AM
Real nice horse on ongate. JILLIBY DYNAMITE Trainers quote

Classy son of CAPTAINTREACHEROU S, mark of 1.48, $228,000 made. Very sound, beautiful horse, great to be around, very consistent, but hard to make money in this part of the country!! Owners moving on. I'll be sad to see him go.

Made $61,000 last year !!!!!   Curious what a typical monthly bill is if you race in the NY, NY, Pa areas.

With a middle of the road trainer it is around $5k a month. Top trainers more likely $7500. It ain’t cheap to train a horse on the east coast. Hay,feed , help etc cost a lot. But if you try you can probably find someone to train for $3k a month. Don’t cry about the results.
