Love a day at the races and there's no better way to do it than as an owner.. I have thought to list a few of them here as I get a bunch of questions and they've become fairly active investments - always buying a couple at Magic Millions Sales Gold Coast (January each year) if anyone wants to join in! Also I update this list from time to time (although it's not complete) as I often run across people who were part owners in the same horses and we never knew.Some current runners:ShesGotTheBoomSummer LovingSocial ElementFerrari ManFoujitaThe RealmSpirit of VomoAnd my two favourites:Sweet Idea - Magic Millions winner, Grp 1 winner and such a joy - now owned by the Queen for breeding.Excess Knowledge - Grp winner and twice in the Melbourne Cup, what a time to enjoy with friends and family.Sweet SisterBold AdventureMingSilk SheetsRock The BoatChloe's CometOverreactiveScarlett RougeBalboa ParkAudacious ChoiceRugosa RoseImperial AviatorJoyfilly oursThe Wild CatTransact Star FallGoodwood ZodiacFly ByBring It BackCoco FashionAngel’s BoyAbjana ParkGindurra Slammerwho knows what else ..
