Frequently asked questions
can I expect prize money if my horse wins or places?
This varies by syndicate. As per the British Horseracing Authority's Rules of Racing legislation, 3.5-8% of race winnings go to the jockey and 6-10% to the trainer depending on the finishing position. The rest is distributed according to the syndicate's rules which are detailed in the shareholder agreement. We recommend reading the syndicate's terms carefully.

what is a racing syndicate?
A racing syndicate is a collaborative ownership model where multiple individuals combine their funds to purchase shares in a racehorse. Syndicate members contribute financially towards the initial purchase of the horse and ongoing expenses like training fees, travel costs, and veterinary care. With Equine Sales, all these expenses are conveniently covered in a single upfront payment for the year, with no hidden charges or additional fees.
are there any hidden costs?
We partner with syndicates that are transparent in their obligations. You will find a share price breakdown on the horse listing page (once you clicked on the listing card). The only potential extra costs you might encounter are related to travel and any personal expenses during in-person visits.
what happens at the end of the ownership term agreement?
At the end of the syndicate term, typically the shareholder will have the option to renew the share at a reduced price to continue following the racehorse's career. In some cases, the horse may be retired or sold, a decision usually made by the majority shareholder where shareholders may have the right to vote depending on the terms of their agreement. Typically, shareholders must seek permission from the syndicate before selling their share.
Racehorse ownership
Racehorse ownership is all about the experience. Shares in a horse should not be viewed as traditional investments.
Ownership types vary among syndicates, typically involving full ownership or a lease. These agreements rarely extend beyond a year.
After the first year, current owners can renew their shares at the original price or at a reduced cost, excluding the initial purchase costs but covering training and day-to-day expenses.
Horseracing is a sport. It’s an exhilarating competition comprised of both people & magnificent horses. With their unique personalities, horses face life’s ups and downs, much like we do.
