"I have kept a horse an extra two years trying to get "what it was worth".
I finally sold that horse for next to nothing"
This is similar to my neighbor & the
Arab/Freisian yearling. She could have sold her as a weanling for $2000, refused
'cause she had so much $$ in her due to vet bills & Foalac (the mare
wouldn't take care of the foal), and she expected to get all her $$
back plus a decent profit. Now a year later, she's having a hard time getting
her sold at $1500, has been offered $1000.She's not a breeder or trainer, so in
my opinion the filly loses value the longer she holds on to it, as it is bigger
& more difficult to handle.
