Have Fun
Owning and managing a Thoroughbred is no less labor-intensive than any other business. There are bills to pay, licenses and accreditations to be obtained, and decisions that need to be made. There is a great deal of time and communication spent between the owner, the trainer, the vet, the vanning company, etc. Frequently racing decisions need to be made, sometimes on short notice. Logistics and coordination in terms of training, racing, and transportation are also vital. None of this is fun. One of the very great benefits of fractional ownership is that the manager handles all these duties. The partners need not spend time and energy with the business side of the game. They'll have more time to spend on the racing (fun and enjoyable) part of the ownership experience.
