OWNERS
We are lucky to have some great owners and all this wouldn't be possible without them. Below are some different ways to own a horse. If you would like to join our team please get in touch! For info on our horses for sale please see www.greenhillsfarmbloodstock.com
SOLE OWNERSHIP
You will be the owner of the horse and no one else. As such, any costs and profits will be yours alone. You will also have a close involvement with any of the decisions regarding the horse. You will be able to choose the name of your horse and which colours will be worn in your name.
LEASING
This form of ownership avoids the requirement for capital outlay for a racehorse. Leasing can vary from “owning” a horse for a single race to having the use of one for up to the whole of its racing career. A lease can involve one lessee or a number of co-lessees.
PARTNERSHIP
Can consist of between two and four individuals, all of whom must become (or already be) registered owners. All owners are severally liable under the Orders and Rules of Racing.
SYNDICATE
This may be an affordable option to own a horse. Syndicates consist of between five and 20 individuals of whom at least one must become, or already be, registered owners.
COMPANY OWNERSHIP
This is a way of using your company to own a horse. The company is in effect a ‘sole owner’ but shareholders in the company participate in racehorse ownership through their shareholdings. It can be great way of advertising your company. The horse can be named after your company providing you buy a horse that is unnamed.
RACING CLUB
Racing clubs offer a low priced introduction into racehorse involvement. Although we do not have our own racing club we welcome involvement in any interested clubs.
