I've been playing since September, and my usual weekly profit is around -3,000. However, my show bonus from points is past 20,000 now. :)

I show as many horses as I can each week, so my show bonus is higher because of that. As Abbey said, look more at the points a horse earns, rather than profit. I was playing for a long time, before I started being in the plus, instead of minus in net profit. That is because I entered every horse available to enter, even breeding horses. The higher the PT, the longer a horse will show before it levels off.

At the present time, in this game the conversion rate is about 75% of the total number of points all your horses have gained. Your stable home page keeps a running account of just how many points you have and what your showing bonus would be if the bonus was paid at that time. It will change as more horses are shown during the week.

Really, the only thing you have to worry about is making sure your horses get showed twice a week, and they will start accumulating points.

Keep an eye on the auction, horses do get unloaded who are higher level and have points already. You can go to the search page, click the "For Auction" radio button, and then go to the Advanced Sort below that and put that on All Time Points. Pick up a few horses that have a jump start on points and that will go a long way toward increasing your show bonus (they start accruing money for you the minute they're in your barn, based on their past points). There are a couple in the auction today who have 100+ points... not a HUGE bonus but if you make a point of picking one or two up in the auction each time you'll get your weekly bonus rolling pretty quickly.
