Our Syndicates
AHA Syndicate Racing
We exclusively race syndicate horses in Australia, the prizemoney is several times greater and the breadth of racing opportunities incomparable. All syndicate owners % of ownership is registered with Racing Australia and winnings are paid directly. Similarly training costs are billed to owners directly relative to % ownership. We do not handle any money ensuring the process is 100% transparent and trustworthy.
We have a single horse syndication plus three fully subscribed 4-horse syndicates now in Australia, of the first 5 horses to race so far, 3 have been first up Maiden winners. An impressive beginning by any standards. Syndicate owners have turned down combined offers of $2.1m for 3 horses to date, preferring as a group to own and race them. Of course, there can always come a time when the money is too irresistible, and a democratic decision made by all to accept it.
In each 4-horse syndications we include two colts plus two fillies. The colts offer a chance of remaining entire and providing a lottery like return should they successfully get to Group Racing level. Most colts are unable to remain entire and race successfully, so are gelded to focus on a racing career. Conversely when fillies have a successful racing career their post racing value as a broodmare can be significant, potentially many times their original purchase price.
We purchase all our horses as yearlings, from there it is circa 18-24 months before they race. It is important to be patient, too many horses are pushed too hard as 2-year-olds resulting in shorter racing careers, or career ending injuries. At Aha, we care for our horses, their physical and mental well-being is paramount. This approach is invariably followed by greater success. It’s why we work with the calibre and quality of trainers we do.
