Ownership is a journey, hopefully with a lot of fun and moments of great pride along the way. Racehorse ownership is similar to buying a lottery ticket- you take a risk and invest, hoping for a positive outcome, but knowing there is no guarantee. The best part is the emotional investment, an aspect that isn't fully appreciated until you experience the exhilaration of winning. Ownership means that come race day, you as an owner feel as much a part of the experience as the trainer or jockey on the day. The satisfaction and thrill of competition are latent in everyone, and you get to feel this through the performance of your horse. It is a very satisfying pastime to be involved in.
