Horse partnership
 
Hope this is ok to post on here, but don't know what's going on with other partnerships through here and I fell upon this one on facebook, anyone have any thoughts on this? I don't know what I should be looking at, I just know it says $250 for a .5% share.

It is a yearling named Kentuckysoldierboy and being trained by Paul McGee with an April start at Keeneland hoped.

Why would you spend $250 for that when you can spend $500 for Dee Tee, where you have instant access, MANY people to talk about the partnership and you can actually learn something.

Not saying they are not trustworthy, but what I am saying is that you aren't going to get the excitement/friends/knowledge that you get from here

nothing against bongo, but i agree with Scav. Dee Tee is right here and a much better group.

I agree 100%

I'm not going to do that one, I was more wondering what you guys thought of it since I just stumbled acrossed it.

Being a college student I'm in no situation to do either, but I definately would spend the extra $250 and do the Dee Tee one because I somewhat know the people on here and am sure it would be 110% better.

I see Jude Feld is one of the people listed...didn't he train for MC Hammer?

I've had only one venture into something like this, and it wasn't really worth it...much better to go with a bunch of folks you know (DEE TEE!), or save up and go in with a few friends on a claimer...I just started my own partnership and claimed my first one today :D (Tampa R2 - Wicked Sweet) with a couple of friends...We're all on cloud 9 - she came out of the race in great order, and think with a pedicure (she lost a shoe in the race and has another about ready to fall off!) and a few pounds on 'er she'll be ready to mow 'em down again! Great times...

His first name is Dan? That is disappointing, I always thought it was Rudeboyelvis.
