We own part of a share in olive, we get texts about how she getting on and we go to most race meeting that she is running at, and we can go and see her on the gallops If we want,but she is in training two and half hours aways, we have had her for nearly 3 years now( my dad brought her for my mum at Christmas) she is shared I think 20 ways and has won three races for us, we pay monthly for her and just have so much fun with her

Sorry forgot to add I think my dad would love to own one outright but it to much money, this way we still get all the great bits without all the money and all the other people that are in on olive are lovely aswell so going to the races it's nice to catch up with people as well

My dad owns a tenth of a racehorse. He had to pay for his share and then trainers fees for the year. He is welcome to go to the yard whenever he likes and gets an owner's pass to the racecourse when she is racing. The trainer sends an email when she is going to race but also has a blog where she puts a general update of what's been going on that week.

Take into account the age and experience of the horse you are buying in to. My dad's bought his share last year and the horse was a rising 2yr unraced filly and so far she has only raced 3 times! They've now turned her away for the winter to do some growing up and will start her again as a 3yr old.
