According to what I've been told, you are incorrect.

What older players have told me is that on the horse's page, their profit or loss is based only on their entry fees and prize money earned (direct money they get for placing well in a show, not show bonus). So a horse with 100 points and a -75hb profit earned is actually gaining you 75 hbs every week in show bonus money (you earn 3 hbs for every 4 points you currently own). They aren't placing highly enough at shows to make enough in prize money to cover their entry fees, but they are still earning their keep in show bonus.

On your stable page, where it tells you your show bonus and net profit, again, the two are mutually exclusive. Your net profit is again your profit or loss based on entry fees and prize money earned but doesn't take into account your show bonus. As long as your show bonus is larger than your net loss, you are making hbs every week! (it also doesn't take into account whatever your weekly salary is).

This was the easiest and shortest explanation for me to understand. When Abbey wrote, Keep 'em, get more, that is the best way to make your showing bonus higher, which in the end gets you more bonus. Not individual horse's page profit. As both have said above, look at the Points of the individual horse's page, not the profit.

When you buy a horse do you get to count their points as points in your stable to earn you money? Or can you only use points you earn?

Lol sorry. I didn't even pay attention :-( lol I kinda assumed that but I was going alot off profit also. Lol
