Luxury Thoroughbred Horse Racing Business For Sale

Ho! Ho! Ho!  While its not the Christmas holidays yet - some interesting items available for purchase are now starting to hit the market.  One high end item available is being offered through the Neiman Marcus catalog.  For the mere sum of $10 million, you can purchase a turn key & managed luxury thoroughbred horse racing business.  The package being offered is being provided by 3 Chimneys Farm in Midway KY (home to Kentucky Derby Winner Big Brown who will be arriving there next year, Smarty Jones, and Triple Crown Winner Seattle Slew).  Whats included for the $10 million price tag is 12 to 15 thoroughbred race horses, trained by the experienced trainers at Three Chimneys Farm (with your guidance of course), and they will board them, enter them into various horse races, and provide you your own personal concierge to manage the entire operation.  You also get to design the jockey silks for your “stable”, attend all of the races, and you get to speak to the media for your horses’ results.  And you get to keep all of the winnings & trophies that are won!

Its essentially a person that wants all of the fun of playing in the Kentucky horse industry - but doesn’t want the hassle of actually having to manage the day to day operations of it.  All the glory, and notoriety - and none of the manure.  What a deal! It will definitely be interesting to see if someone steps forward this holiday season and purchases this opportunity.  I’m sure they’ll get a lot of press immediately (if they want it) as it’ll bring some new blood into the horse industry in KY.
