Racehorse Ownership

The Racegoers Club offers members the chance to experience the thrill of thoroughbred racehorse ownership in both codes of racing. Our aim is to provide the best value ownership experience at a fraction of the usual cost. We endeavor to have trainers across the country so that you are never too far away from the action.

Your dedicated Racegoers Club Owners Group Manager will ensure all owners are kept regularly informed and have the opportunity to visit their horse in training at some of the finest stables in the country. We will never ask our members for additional funds, all costs are covered by one initial fee for a single season.

An Affordable Experience

Our horses are leased from their breeders, meaning the cost of purchase is not incurred by owners, with the horse running in the colours of The Racegoers Club Owners Groups throughout it’s time with us. Leases are usually for a minimum of two years, with an option for us to end the Owners Group at the end of the first season if performance has not been what we would expect. The minimum term means owners can follow the progress of their horses as they mature and progress.

Keeping you informed

As an owner with the Racegoers Club you will have a high level of personal customer service, with regular updates from your own Racing Manager with running plans and reports. We arrange regular owner’s visits to see your horse on the gallops and in the stables. Owners will be talked through the horse's training programme and get a behind the scenes look at some of the superb training facilities, seeing the care and attention that goes into preparing a thoroughbred for racing. 

Ownership Group Size

Shares are limited to a maximum of 150 per Owners Group. With a limited number of share holders, our groups are friendly, informal and welcoming. All Share Owners can enjoy a detailed updates and an exciting in the ownership experience.

Owners Badges

When a Owners Group horse runs, owners will have the opportunity to apply for a complimentary owner’s badge. The complimentary Owner badges are then distributed by ballot, in accordance with the Owners Group rules.
