Last year's Del Mar Paddock Sale
Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, Barretts Sales, and Thoroughbred Owners of California will host "Buying a Racehorse" at Del Mar July 23, a free new owner seminar and preview of the Paddock Sale.
The seminar will begin at 9 a.m. PT in the Veranda Café and conclude at approximately 11:30 a.m.
Seminar panelists include bloodstock agent Rollin Baugh, trainer Ron Ellis, Jeff Lifson of West Point Thoroughbreds, and international auctioneer Ryan Mahan. They will discuss acquiring horses at auction and through private sales, claiming horses, and joining racehorse partnerships and syndicates.
The seminar also will include a trip to the Barretts Sales barns, where attendees will get a close-up look at horses in training and a preview of the horses entered in that evening's Paddock Sale.
Several representatives of racing syndicates will be on hand to provide informational materials for those interested in joining a racing partnership or syndicate. Any partnerships or syndicates interested in participating should call Mary Forney at (626) 574-6617.
