So, I have around 1100 show ponies at the moment. There's a lot that are 4yrs and under with less than 200 points. Should I auction off any horses that have less than 200 points and replace them with higher pointed ponies?

* I do not have the money to buy another barn right now

I would auction off some of them, but not all; to keep some of you showing bonus coming in. As they are under 4, their points and profit will increase as they age.

I wouldn't. A lot of times the ones that don't earn a lot in the beginning have lower counts because they're powering through the competition levels and not sitting in one spot long enough to gain points.

Those are the horses that'll be your powerhouse earners in the future.

I try to keep 2-3 Show babies per pasture breed to be my future income. The pointed creates were great, but they will age out eventually and I'll need teens and younger to take their place.

... On a side note I find the year after a horse stops training a good time to cull for the bottom of the classers. (PT of 9.something, check records at 11. And so forth.)
