Columbus, OH — After selling all of the shares available for 2-year-olds in their stable, the fractional ownership site TheStable.ca has introduced a secondary share market to accommodate both present and potential clients.

“Now that 12 of our stable of 2-year-olds have qualified, we have seen a significant amount of outside interest in purchasing shares in them and we feel our clients should have a way within our stable and website to turn a profit if they so choose,” said Anthony MacDonald, founder of TheStable.ca.

Visitors to the site can click on the “Shares for Sale” link at the top of the page to view horses available for sale. Some of the most exciting prospects available, according to MacDonald, are Rose Run Speedster, a colt by Windsong Espoir–Padam Hall who qualified June 3 at Mohawk in 2:02.3 with a :27 final quarter, and Broadway Maija, a filly by Broadway Hall–BWT Maija who qualified June 3 at Mohawk in 2:02.4 with a final quarter of :28.1. MacDonald added that this page will be updated regularly as shares of horses become available.

“By making it easier for buyers and sellers to interact in an open forum, we have once again made it simple for people from all walks of life to get a chance to experience horse ownership,” he said.

TheStable.ca is also still accepting entries for its $10,000 Fantasy Stable contest using horses on its training roster. Entrants have until June 25 to choose their stable. Each dollar earned by horses in a player’s fantasy stable will be worth one point. The player with the most points on Oct. 28 will win $6,000, with second place winning $3,000 and third place winning $1,000.
