Ownership

You own 100% of the horse and retain full control over decisions such as race entries and jockey bookings, receiving all prize money in return for covering the full training costs. Best suited to owners who want complete, hands-on involvement.

Two or more owners, often friends or family, jointly own a horse, sharing costs, decisions and the experience in agreed proportions. A more affordable way to enjoy close involvement in ownership without going it alone.

The horse is divided into a larger number of shares, each held by an individual owner and typically coordinated by a syndicator who manages the day-to-day admin. One of the most popular and affordable routes into racehorse ownership.

A membership-based model where the club holds shares in one or more horses on behalf of its members. Racing clubs usually offer a lower-cost, lower-commitment way to enjoy ownership perks, such as yard visits and raceday hospitality, without the day-to-day decision-making of a sole owner.

Rather than buying a share outright, a horse is leased from its existing owner(s) for an agreed period or number of races. A flexible, lower-risk way to try ownership or fill a gap in a training schedule.
