How It Works

What is a Syndicate

A racing syndicate lets a group of people share the ownership of one or more horses. You buy a share in a horse (or a time-limited lease of a share) and enjoy all the key perks of ownership but with much lower costs and risk.

Buying Into a Syndicate

You either:

• Pay a one-off purchase fee plus monthly training costs, or
• Pay an all-inclusive monthly subscription.

The syndicate manager, Nick Scholfield sources the horse, registers it, and handles all the admin.

Registration & Shares

The horse is officially registered with the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) under the syndicate’s name. Each member owns or leases a defined percentage of the horse. Prize money and any sale proceeds are split proportionally.

Costs & Management

Your fixed monthly payment (or share of actual costs) covers:

• Training fees and race entries
• Stabling, feed, vets, farrier and transport
• Admin and communications

The syndicate manager sends out updates and organises visits.

Communication & Access

• Regular trainer updates (videos, emails)
• Invitations to stable visits and gallops mornings
• Owners’ badges on race days (allocated by ballot if oversubscribed)
• Access to a private members’ hub for photos, replays and form

Prize Money & Perks

Any prize money earned is credited to the syndicate and distributed according to shares. Many syndicates also offer partner perks such as discounted merchandise, feed suppliers, or hotel deals.

The Experience

A syndicate is about affordable, social ownership. You get the buzz of seeing “your” horse run, the chance to meet like-minded members, and all the thrill of the winners’ enclosure without taking on all the costs yourself.
