Magdalena Racing - Partnerships Kept Simple

Bloodstock

Owning world-class Thoroughbred race horses is one of the most exciting endeavors in the world. A fast horse can take people on the journey of a lifetime as its career unfolds with the elements of a great storybook – mystery, drama, adventure, fantasy, romance.

Each race horse is its own individual sports franchise, and the right one can venture into worlds once only imagined: the thrilling spotlight of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes, or to the gathering of champions at the Breeders’ Cup. The right one can lead to the historic beauty of Saratoga Race Course, the horse heaven called Keeneland or under the famed twin spires at Churchill Downs.

“I believe when you get someone new into the game, that you teach them.  When you invest someone else’s money in this sport, it is important that you do it wisely.”
