Statistics are always interesting but do not always tell the true story
The top five probably have 1000 + horses in their yards . Average cost per horse possibly R300000k The bottom 100 probably average 30 horses per yard average cost possibly
R40k If a small trainer has a strike of 8%+ wins then he is good at his job
Remember also small stables NEVER get Delpech Lerena Marcus Khumalo etc
This also makes a difference
Very difficult of the smaller yards world wide
Training racehorses?
Not a business for sissies In fact not really a business at all
