Smilliehas indicated that his
horse may also be eligible for
such American tCiassics as

Preakness, and the Beimcont
Stakes.
Syndication will mean that
the 10 investors will each be
responsible for 10 per cent of
the costs involved in training,
maintaining, and cuing for
the yearling. Likewise, each
investor will receive 10 per
cent of any prize money
resulting from the horses's
success on the racetrack. If
the horse pioves to be as
successful as Brian hopes,
investors would also take 10
per cent of later breeding fees
once the horse has been
retired from active racing.
"We recognize that most
people who'd like to race their
own thoroughbreds haven't
the necessary capital in-
vestment." Smillie com-
mented in explaining his
decision to syndicate. "As a
result, we've established a

At his young age, Brian has
already, had an interesting
and amazingly long career in
the breeding of thoroughbred
race horses.
At 15 years of age. he
purchased his first thorough-
bred, a mare which was
pregnant with $750 hard-
earned dollars accumulated
during a . summer of hoeing
beans. The mare's foal,
"Snappy Senator" was sold
for $1800 and went on to win a
total of $42,842 for his owners.
By the age of 21 he had
achieved a goal that many
men never reach 'in their /
lifetimes, being worth
"$100,000 free and clear."
