Pinhooking in thoroughbred racing involves buying young horses, preparing them carefully, and then re-selling them for a profit. At JD Moore Bloodstock, this is done with experience, precision, and a keen eye for quality. JD and his team focus on selecting yearlings and weanlings with strong conformation, athletic ability, and pedigrees suited to early racing performance. Each prospect is carefully assessed for physical attributes, veterinary soundness, and pedigree potential before purchase.
Once acquired, the horses are conditioned, broken, and trained with an individualised programme to prepare them for sale as two-year-olds in training. Working closely with leading trainers and consignors, JD ensures each horse is positioned in the best possible sales or racing opportunities. While weanlings and yearlings are evaluated primarily on physical inspection and pedigree, two-year-olds also need to demonstrate performance under saddle, with speed and movement playing a key role in their market value.
