Stretarez With 9 group winners like this in the string hopes are very high for the coming National Hunt season

  They first tasted real success with General Wolfe, who is currently sidelined with a minor injury, but once back in training shares in him will be made available.

The level of financial involvement varies from horse to horse, but entails the purchase of 1/12^th share in the chosen horse which is purchased at the outset. (For full details of the horses, shares available and price of shares please see the list following this introduction). The purchase price includes the horse's training and vet's fees for twelve months. Thereafter joint owners will be required to pay 1/12^th of the horse’s training fees monthly – hopefully offset by winnings of course. Each ‘owner’ will be entitled  to 1/12^th of their horse’s income which could eventually include stud fees as well as racecourse earnings (e.g. Stretarez). In addition, owners badges will also be provided and stable visits arranged. As Lester Piggott is joint owner of one of the horses it may also allow members the opportunity to meet him at the races. 

The syndicate believes it has other benefits to offer any joint owner, namely the services of their own in-house handicapper, who has, amd will, prove invaluable in best placing each horse to ensure the maximum return from members' investments.

  Shares are available in the following horses

  Stretarez – 5 –y-o bay horse – Saumarez – Street Opera. Trained by V.Williams.

The syndicate believes it has other benefits to offer any joint owner, namely the services of their own in-house handicapper, who has, and will, prove invaluable in best placing each horse to ensure the maximum return from members’ investments.p; Bred in the purple (by ’91 Arc winner Saumarez) and with three group victories under his belt already – including a G2 at Longchamp – this 5-y-o entire has already amassed £169,000 in WIN prize money.

  Despite his victory in Chester’s G3 Ormonde stakes earlier this season, Stretarez’s long term aim remains the 1999Champion hurdle, as he was specifically purchased for a hurdling career. There are a number of options open for him on the Flat this season including the Irish St Leger and the Prix de l’arc de Triomphe. There are also a couple of races on the continent pencilled in for him that look well within his compass, and won’t take much winning. He will remain an entire and will eventually stand at stud.

  Shares available: 1

Cost per Share: £19,500

  Teeton Mill – 9-y-o grey gelding – Neltino – Celtic Wall. Trained by V.Williams

  Winner of the first seven completed started and hunter chases, Teeton Mill is an exciting  prospect, and has already improved considerably since being moved to new trainer Venetia Williams. His biggest victory to date is the £13k Horse and Hound Cup, although next season he will be campaigned in handicap chases. An autumn campaign is a possibility, with Cheltenham’s Sporting Index Cross Country being his next likely target. The winner picks up £18,000, and a race of this sort should be well within his grasp.

Shares available: 2

  Cost per share: £8,300

Teeton Mill retired for the season as one of the country's
leading hunters.     

  Cost per share: £3,300

  We have also recently purchased Racketball, who will remain in training with Nigel Twiston-Davies, and will be aimed at Sandown’s Imperial Cup and Cheltenham’s County Hurdle. A £100,000 bonus is paid for winning both races. (information on request).
