Jamie Railton Sales Agency Track Record

Jamie Railton has a track record of success in yearling sales preparation, both in pinhooking (JR Bloodstock Investment) and consigning, and in consigning to breeding stock and horses-in-training sales.

JR Bloodstock Investment Performance

JR Bloodstock Investment typically buys 10-20 foals per year. The cost of the foals can range from £20,000 to £300,000. The average cost per foal bought in 2021 was £66,000.

Each horse costs approximately £14,000 to keep for the year, this includes cost of skilled staff, expert nutrition, veterinary care and sales entries.

The foals are generally bought in November and December and sold as yearlings the following year, between August and October.

JR Bloodstock Investment Investment Highlights

In buying foals and then selling them as yearlings, JR Bloodstock Investment hits the ‘sweet spot’ in terms of when the highest number of thoroughbreds are at their optimum value. Since setting up its pinhooking operation JR Bloodstock Investment has delivered consistently positive results and enjoyed some notable pinhooking successes.
