Hey guys. May potentially claim a horse. I'll will be talking to the trainer in the next few days. Just curious to get an idea before hand based on the info below what this could cost me a month. I know some expenses are not foreseeable. I'm think about $4,500 per month. Yes, I'm doing this for fun and as a hobby and don't expect to make money. Thanks,
