Syndicates are one of the most common ways to get involved with a horse. Becoming part of the syndicate allows you to experience all the thrills of racing without having to manage some of the day to day tasks involved with a race horse. Syndicates allow you to buy shares within a horse which is managed by a “syndicate manager”. The syndicate manager takes care of all the collation of billing, smaller day to day decisions and keeps the communication between all the owners involved. These normally involve extra fees for this but for busy people this is a great option.

Stallions –

Similar to the Service fee category however they are looking to sell the whole stallion. You may have the option to keep on racing these horses or send them off the the breeding barn.

Broodmares –

This is a mixed category that consists of clients looking to offer their broodmares for breeding or sell them off completely. The Broodmares have so many options like potentially racing on, Breeding rights or just been sold off completely. This is normally a case by case and you should contact the seller to see what options they might be interested in.
