COMMON QUESTIONS

We’ve tried to answer some frequently-asked questions below, but if you would like to find out more then just call or send us an email.

What are the costs of ownership?

  • Purchase of the horse, which is split accordingly for Group or Joint Ownership arrangements.
  • Monthly training fees. Discount schemes are available for payments made in advance.
  • Racing expenses as necessary.

I’m interested in a more short term option?

For those who would like to experience some of the excitement that owning a racehorse can offer, but do not wish to purchase a horse outright.

Leasing contracts for specific time periods are available. For example, it is possible to “own” a horse for the day at the races.

What is owner-sponsorship?

This system allows racehorse owners to gain income through sponsorship.

Owners are able to reclaim VAT on their racing expenses, e.g. training fees, transport costs, veterinary fees, jockeys fees and even overnight stays when travelling to watch your horse run.

The owner pays a fee to the BHA (British Racehorsing Authority) which then enables them to use branding opportunities on the following items:

  • Owner’s colours
  • Attendants’ clothing
  • Rugs and sheets

For more information please see the owner-sponsorship section on the BHA website www.britishhorseracing.com.
