LOPE DE VEGA


“…never put off until tomorrow what you can do today”

The seventeenth century Spaniard Lope de Vega was one of several literary figures credited to utter this similar idiom. It is surely good advice when it comes to securing the attention of the stallion who bears his name.

After a decade of dominant service, Lope De Vega (by Shamardal) the dual Classic winner is in demand for good reasons.

All reputable bloodstock analysts include Lope De Vega on their lists of elite stallions because they know the stats. It is near impossible to find a flaw in Lope de Vega’s production of world-class horses because this standout data is underpinned by a remarkably solid core of elite racetrack performers.

His global reach is amazing: from top-class sprinters in Australia, like Santa Ana Lane, Vega One, Vega Magic and Gytrash, to Group 1-winning milers in Europe such as Belardo, Phoenix Of Spain and Zabeel Prince, to the brilliant American runners such as Newspaperofrecord and Aunt Pearl.

They come out running as 2yo’s and thrive with age and experience.

In fact, they are better as 4yo’s than they are as 2yo’s.

All of this should be no surprise considering Lope De Vega’s racing record and pedigree.

We have seen the influence and importance of his own sire, the successful Shamardal.

Whilst that giant of the breeding barn is no longer with us, in Lope de Vega, he did provide a son of the highest-quality worthy to carry forward his Sire’s exceptional status.

Local breeders are already familiar with Lope De Vega’s prowess as a sire; after all, in Australia he has already produced five (5) Gr.1 winners: Gytrash, Santa Ana Lane, Vega Magic Vega One and Arapaho, as well as five (5) Gr.2 winners, along with five (5) Gr3 Winners and five (5) Listed Race Winners.

OUR SALE NOTES:

A high quality example of an athletic type of yearling

~ we wanted to buy the yearling and to give him to



CIARON MAHER who we are having
such a fantastic season with again in 2023-24




 
  • Good width of jaw and corresponds with big Nostrils (for windflow capacity access)
  • Conformationally front legs are excellent with nice short cannon (which is technically very good – means longer forearm covers more ground per stride)
  • Powerful hindquarter with excellent length of to its croup and excellent hip:hock ratio (propulsion levers for driving forward)
  • Well developed Gaskins (like Human biceps = strength) which are strong and deep into hocks
  • Correct angulation to pasterns and shoulders (correct 60 degree angles)
  • Hoofs are well structured and all 4 are symmetrical with good heels.
  • Intelligent Head - Wide Forehead - Soft Kind Eye
  • Has a strong reign (neck & distance from Poll to Withers)
  • Strong well defined top line (back) with the withers set well back
  • Excellent - Deep girth (Lung capacity)
  • A top walker – purposeful, balanced, with fluid motion.
  • Stands over good ground (length to back in correct proportion to balance of individual)
  • Importantly this yearling Tracks Truly and has a Very Good Overstep (Propulsion)
  • Nice style of individual by the sire with great V8 motor (hindquarter = propulsion)



Dr Tim Roberts (Veterinarian)


"A nice horse, uncomplicated with plenty of size and scope to grow. A well-bred, athletic type, correct, forward and who is clinically very good. His radiographs were unremarkable and videoscope was Grade 1."

"He has a good action and has every chance of running as a later 2yo and importantly whatever he does as a 2yo he will improve upon. He’s a horse on conformation that will get out over a bit of ground. "

"Those European pedigrees are unlimited, because they develop a bit slower and they keep developing and you can run them later in life, they run as five and six-year-olds. He’s a nice, sound individual who should stay sound based upon his conformation and be able to get out over ground.”

"You have purchased a nice colt to aim at the classic races."



Adam Watt
(Dynamic Syndications)

"This champion stallion stamps his stock and with our colt, he looks a cookie cut of the sire."

"We had the privilege of owning one of his rare Australian yearlings when we purchased a yearling back in 2016 named Decroux who was above average winning 6 races including 3 in town plus a cup race.  When we saw this boy, he was the same style of individual as Decroux was at the same time, which piqued our interest further.

We identified this colt in the catalogue firstly by his genetic A+++ rating which made him a must to inspect then he didn’t disappoint on type."

"He’s out of an 1450m winner in England, and he’s a 3/4 brother to a 1850m Group 3 winner, and two of his directly descending 5 Dams were Champions. It’s a quality European Black-Type family and this is a potential Guineas Derby prospect.

"He looks a little more precocious than what is typical of the Lope De Vega’s so he may come to hand and be a later 2yo but realistically, he was purchased with the view he will be a Spring 3yo miler plus type.

If you like your purist’s style races, which we do, we love the Classics, then there is so much more opportunity when you get out past 2000m in Australia because the pool of horses at those distances significantly diminishes."

"He’s just a beautiful colt that will take a little time but once he gets out to 2000m I am really excited about this horse."

"We are delighted to be able to secure a LOPE DE VEGA Colt here in Australia. He was one of only 12 Yearlings foaled in 2022 in Australia to Southern Hemisphere time. There were a dozen mares imported in foal to LOPE DE VEGA to produce live foals with 8 fillies and 4 colts."

"He was just a colossal colt and a awesome opportunity with low risk X-Rays and a Grade 1 scope, by a stallion that is just unbelievably successful and works here in Australia from a quality European family.

"For us, we love buying out of European families if we want a horse that can stick. They get the trip over there and they throw that class into them compared to our limited staying genetics in the Southern Hemisphere. He’s an Guineas, Derby prospect placed into the stable capable of achieving this result for us."



 
CIARON MAHER
Trainer:

"A nice type off one of the best farms in Victoria.

"He's got the looks, by a champion sire who works here in Australia and this Colt has a high quality international pedigree. He’s got the page to be a miler to 2000m horse and looks like he should come to hand as a Spring 3yo.

"He's the colt to polish up and see if we can target the Classic Races with and make a stallion prospect out of him for his Dynamic ownership team.
I just feel he’s the ideal candidate.

"
He’s been a steal at the sale and if he's half as good as the others Dynamic have with me, then we'll be having a lot of fun."


SELECTION PROCESS

Q)
So - Why did we buy HIM? 
   
A) That's easy to answer !


Pedigree:


Commencing weeks prior to attending the sale complex:

When researching which lots to inspect in the weeks prior to the sale, we look for certain genetic factors that increase the chance of the yearling being a superior athlete.

This pedigree had certain ancestor duplications which we are seeking, to give what we consider, a balanced blend of speed and endurance. Full details of the Pedigree Evaluation is located in our Pedigree Notes Section of this website.


Veterinarian:


Dr Tim Roberts - Contracted Veterinarian to Dynamic Syndications

Our veterinarian Dr Tim Roberts inspected the yearling prior to purchase and believed this youngster to be a quality individual and a chance of being a successful equine athlete with no visual clinical issues likely to prevent it from reaching its racing potential.

Before purchase, the 42 X-Rays deposited in the sale ground X-Ray Repository facility were examined. There were no abnormal findings noted.

The horse was approved by Dr. Roberts for Dynamic Syndications to purchase in the salering.

After purchase, an endoscopic test on the horse's airway was performed and the result was the horse had normal function.

Also a blood test was performed and revealed no abnormal findings.


Fair Market Value:

 
Considering this superb genetic pedigree, the commercial value of the sire, excellent athletic conformation and overall size, strength and scope, we rated this yearling as an "MUST HAVE" purchase.

Dean Watt as a Licensed Commercial Agent and a
erstwhile Longstanding Member of the Bloodstock Agents Federation of Australia (FBAA), is acknowledged as an industry leader and approved to offer Market Appraisals as to the Commercial Valuation of thoroughbreds.

Dean Watt evaluates each yearling that passes its Veterinary Inspection as to the maximum Commercial Value after taking in such factors as:


* The Individual's Conformation
* Sales of Progeny with Similar Commercial Pedigrees by the Sire
* The Sire’s Service Fee both current and at date of Conception
* Sales of other progeny from the 1st & 2nd Dams in pedigree
   based upon the Service Fee value of the sire of that mating.
* Any Sale recorded of the Dam herself.
* Racetrack Appraisal of the immediate family (Siblings / Dam).
* Working horses in the immediate family (Likelihood of the family
   improving commercially by producing a Stakes Winner
   in the near future)
* Historical Sale Average of the Actual Sale being Conducted.
* Current Economic & Political environment.

A specific formula is applied to each of these variables and a figure is determined.

This is our Ceiling Price.

The price we are prepared to bid up to in a bidding war in the Salering.

The maximum price we set at which we will withdraw from the heat of battle.

We set a strict ceiling price on all the horses that pass Veterinarian Inspection and write that figure on the Catalogue Page of each lot that passes to ensure that we do not make bidding errors during the auction.

Having completed all our Due Diligence reviews based upon Pedigree, Conformation, Veterinary Acceptance and Market Appraisal, we are always prepared to bid up to our limit to secure what we considered is an outstanding individual.



VALUATION PRICE:



Considering HIS outstanding conformation and the strength and depth of the female family and the pedigree genetics this individual was secured at a price representing terrific value to the team at Dynamic.

We had valued the yearling at up to $160,000 (+ one bid $170,000) in line with the colt that sold at the Inglis Classic for $140,000 which we had inspected but rejected, plus the fact that over the past 5 years, the MEDIAN price for COLTS by the Sire has been $177,000.

We also believed we could secure him at less than our ceiling valuation price if circumstances fell our way.


Ballylinch Stud, Ireland - the home of LOPE DE VEGA offered a limited number of Southern Hemisphere Services to LOPE DE VEGA in September 2021 at 60,000 Euro ($95,240 AUD) which was just under half his standard service fee of 125,000 Euro ($198,000 AUD).

We were aware that over the past 5 years COLTS by LOPE DE VEGA had a Median value of $180,000.

We also knew that the mare had been imported in foal to LOPE DE VEGA and was purchased through the Magic Millions Broodmare Sale for $180,000 by Yulong Stud for their "new stallion" Tagaloa whom they have covered her with the next two seasons. The fact she was in foal to LOPE DE VEGA was an added bonus. They could sell the foal and return some of their initial investment paid for the mare.

We also where aware that YULONG STUD this year at all the yearling sales had a policy to put very modest reserves on their yearlings to meet the market, as they had bred a significant amount of yearlings in 2022.

Inquiries of the stud an hour before the colt headed into the salering revealed that they had placed an $80,000 Reserve on this colt.

That was encouraging, that a modest amount was placed on the colt but we were still of the belief he would be well found and still be good buying somewhere between $140,000 - $160,000

We made sure we engineered our bidding to land on their reserve of $80,000 and be guided by the bidding war from that point, up to our ceiling. So as you can imagine we were delighted when the gavel fell on our bid of $80,000 + GST.

This was a massive 50% ($80,000) discount to our market ceiling price appraisal of the true commercial value.

Having working relationships with so many vendors at sales over the many years we have been buying yearlings, we rely a lot on our associations to get the inside mail on Reserve Prices and Values.

It's a Win-Win

(1) The Vendor YULONG STUD sold their Colt and achieved a fair market price.

(2)
Dynamic Syndications purchased a their Colt for $80,000 less than we valued him. We pass on this saving to our owners.


This is a major advantage Team Dynamic achieves in securing high-quality yearlings at value for our owners to reap the rewards.

PEDIGREE NOTES – It’s all in the genes !

On our ratings they have scaled this mating as a MAXIMUM performance indicator.

Also this has been rated a “A+++ ” class mating with an opportunity that this mating can produce an above average racehorse when compared to the total number of horses produced by the sire to date.

This is classed as a EXCELLENT chance to produce an exceptional performer that may reach Black Type level.

This analysis is based upon Stakes Winners from around the world that have similar pedigree construction to the way the horse we have purchased was bred.

Based on the concept of "Dig for Gold where Gold has been found before", it makes sense that any sensible business philosophy should look to purchase yearlings where there has been an attempt by the breeder to replicate pedigrees of High Quality Group Winners.

Any analysis must look at the entire pedigree as whole however there are key indicators in pedigrees that expose greater insight and the propensity of the mating to produce a High Quality racehorse as compared to the average population.

CSI   "Common Similarity Index"


CSI
  is a measure of how close the pedigree of the Stakes Winner matches the hypothetical-mating.

In general, values at and above 18 indicate a strong similarity.

As a rule of thumb, if the results list shows 4 or more stakes winning horses with CSI of 18 or above, it is usually a "good mating".
In Our COLT's mating:

There are 13 Stakes Winners with a strong similarity in their breeding patterns.



Ghibellines 


Four White Socks


Castle Lady            


Endless Drama


Shaman 


Sasparella 


Summerghand

French Fern  


Shamalia

Next .....


A HIGHER RANKING  20/20 mating pattern occurs when any pattern has 2 or more Stakes Winners with CSI values at or above 20.

This indicates that this pedigree is "exceptional" as there are at least 2 superior horses with a "very similar" pattern.


In the breeding pattern of our yearling the number of matched ancestors is HIGH.

There were
8 Stakes Winners on the 20/20 matings:

The Profile above shows the Age and Distance range of Stakes Winners bred with this same or closely designed breeding pattern.

Professional Bloodstock Consultants such as Dean Watt of Dynamic Syndications spend countless hours researching pedigrees and their genetic patterns and are aware when these same pedigree patterns have been replicated deliberately by the breeder in the hope that they may have bred a champion racehorse.

Often however the breeder has accidentally or by pure chance produced
a yearling to these patterns.

This is what sets our company at the pinnacle of its field.

DYNAMIC SYNDICATIONS

How was the Share Price Calculated? 

Fair Market Value:
 
Considering this superb genetic pedigree, the commercial value of the sire, excellent athletic conformation and overall size, strength and scope, we rated this yearling as an "MUST HAVE" purchase.

Dean Watt as a licensed Commercial Agent and an earstwhile longstanding Member of the Bloodstock Agents Federation of Australia (FBAA).

Dean is
approved to offer Market Appraisals as to the Commercial Valuation of all thoroughbreds.


Dean evaluates each yearling that passes its Veterinary Inspection as to the maximum Commercial Value after taking in such factors as:


* The Individual's Conformation
* Sales of Progeny with Similar Commercial Pedigrees by the Sire
* The Sire’s Service Fee both current and at date of Conception
* Sales of other progeny from the 1st & 2nd Dams in pedigree
   based upon the Service Fee value of the sire of that mating.
* Any Sale recorded of the Dam herself.
* Racetrack Appraisal of the immediate family (Siblings / Dam).
* Working horses in the immediate family (Likelihood of the family
   improving commercially by producing a Stakes Winner
   in the near future)
* Historical Sale Average of the Actual Sale being Conducted.
* Current Economic & Political environment.

A specific formula is applied to each variable and a figure is determined.

That is our Ceiling Price.

The price we are prepared to bid up to in a bidding war in the Salering.

The maximum price we set at which we will withdraw from the heat of battle.

We set a strict ceiling price on all the horses that pass Veterinarian Inspection and write that figure on the Catalogue Page of each lot that passes inspection to ensure that we do not make bidding errors during the auction.


Having completed all our Due Diligence reviews based upon Pedigree, Conformation, Veterinary Acceptance and Market Appraisal, we are always prepared to bid up to our limit to secure what we considered is an outstanding individual.

Once we purchase any horse a share price is determined.

No related news for the Promotion.

The SHARE PRICE is the advertised upfront cost to purchase your ownership share (inclusive of GST) and includes the Fall Of Hammer Price and ALL COSTS specified as declared in the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) to the pre-determined maturity date (normally 6 months from date of purchase).

After the maturity date, then the ongoing Training and Holding Costs will begin.

ONGOING COSTS: Every trainer is different i.e. Metropolitan / Provincial / Country and in the way they account to owners.

Below we have taken many of these variables into consideration to give an up to date assessment as what owners should budget:

For any 5% Share over a 12 month period, on a Worse Case basis
(All Costs & Fees included but with no prizemoney earned) -

Owners should budget for any horse trained by a Premiership Leading Trainer at a Sydney or Melbourne Metropolitan Racetrack an average of:

$8.90 + GST = $9.79 per day > ($62.50 + GST = $68.75 per week) >

($270 + GST = $297 per month) > ($3,250 + GST = $3,575 per annum)


to have a horse trained by a Non-Premiership Leading but Top 20 Trainer at a Sydney or Melbourne Metropolitan Racetrack an average of:

$8.20 + GST = $9.02 per day > ($58.00 + GST = $63.80 per week) >

($250 + GST = $275 per month) > ($3,000 + GST = $3,300 per annum)



to have a horse trained by a Provincial Trainer at a NSW or Victorian Racetrack an average of:

$7.53 + GST = $8.28 per day > ($52.80 + GST = $58.08 per week) >

($230 + GST = $253 per month) > ($2,750 + GST = $3,025 per annum)

 

Should a client purchase a larger equity percentage then the costs are simply multiplied pro-rata.

These budgeted costs make no allowance for any prizemoney to be won and with prizemoney at record levels, racing has never been more affordable and profitable.
MYTH BUSTER: The Syndication Industry is regularly accused by those uneducated to the processes of the racing industry, of making a significant “MARK UP” from the raw Fall Of Hammer Price (which does not include GST) at the sales, to the final Syndication Sale price.

From Dynamic Syndications position, we totally reject any such: false - dishonest - inaccurate - ill informed commentaries.

FACT: 
Dynamic Syndications are committed to FULL DISCLOSURE - TRANSPARENCY & INTEGRITY

All shares Dynamic Syndications offer for sale to the public reflect the Purchase Price + ALL COSTS  + GST out to a Forward Date of approximately 6 months.

The syndication sector of the racing industry, as required under the Corporations Act and Australian Financial Services License compliance, is the most "transparent of any industry in the Southern Hemisphere."

For each individual promotion, all costs are FULLY DISCLOSED (including our profit margin) and are attached as an annexure to the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).

AUCTION PRICE:
Fall of Hammer Price paid in the Auction Ring - Then GST must be added 

DYNAMIC SYNDICATIONS PROFIT MARGIN

Our Profit Margin is determined by a Set Calculation Template.

On Average it is 7.73% of the Final Share Price

Our Gross Profit upon EVERY Promotion we offer is calculated at a SET FEE of 12.5% of the Fall of Hammer Price e.g. If a horse is sold for $100,000 we charge $12,500 + GST for the promotion; e.g. $60,000 = $7,500 + GST; or $120,000 = $15,000 + GST; etc., etc., etc.

Therefore on the financial model above, should Dynamic Syndications purchase a horse for $100,000 in the salering, we add our set Profit Margin fee of $12,500 = $112,500 + $11,250 GST = $123,750 divided by 20 shares = $6,187.50 (inclusive of GST) per 5% Share.

Breakdown: Cost of Share $5,000 + Dynamic Syndications Profit  $625 GST $562.50 = $6,187.50

From this position, simply ALL COSTS incurred in the process from the selection of the horse out to the set forward date are added together and divided by 20 shares and a fixed price is determined which becomes the SYNDICATION PRICE.

These costs incurred are ALWAYS FULLY DISCLOSED in the Cost Annexure attached to the PDS. Costs incurred are per the schedule below:

NOTE: Under an Australian Financial Services License, the maximum promotion allowed to be offered to the public from any Syndication Company is $500,000 including GST.

However under our own internal structure, the maximum price we pay for any horse in any sale ring is capped at $190,000.

Therefore $190,000 x 12.5% = $23,750 divided by 20 shares = $1,187.50 + GST

Therefore the  MAXIMUM GROSS PROFIT potentially available to Dynamic Syndications upon any 5% Share is $1,187.50

Therefore to determine the net percentage profit on a sale of a 5% share is:

Set 12.5% Profit Margin Fee divided by Share Price, multiplied by 100

This equals just 7.73% of the Promotion Price.


SALE ~ VETERINARY COSTS: Veterinary work at sale complex by our contracted veterinarians, includes: Physical inspections on all potential lots and X-rays, apportioned across the number of yearlings purchased at the sale for syndication + Endoscopic evaluation post-sale to ensure the horse’s airflow is of normal function + Blood testing post-sale for any Anabolic Androgenic Steroids on each lot purchased. (Note: If any lot fails Endoscope or Blood testing the sale is immediately cancelled).

Prizemoney is distributed by the relevant Racing Authority's Stakes Payment Division, twice per calendar month.

Owners whom have a 5% share or greater will receive their prizemoney directly from the Racing Authority into their designated bank account.

Owners who form a Racing Syndicate (multiple owners in one share) will have their prizemoney deposited into the Dynamic Syndications Prizemoney Trust Account.

These funds will be disbursed immediately they have cleared through the banking system by our office to the individual racing syndicate members.
As an owner you are always welcome to visit the stable or spelling farm with your family and friends to view your horse at a convenient time for both you and the stable or spelling farm. A simple telephone call to our office to arrange a suitable time would be required to organise an acceptable time.
Our company supplies a detailed independent veterinary report on each individual horse we offer to the public.

Each promotion we offer to the public includes has a current veterinary certificate (within 30 days) of lodgement of the documents with the Lead Regulator for Approval of the Promotion.

Further, within the PDS we declare that should any event change the health or well-being (injury or illness) of the horse prior to the registration of the scheme with the Lead Regulator, the risk remains with the Dynamic Syndications as the promoter and the purchaser / investor shall have a full refund of their share application price paid into the trust account.

This veterinary report will always include a review of the horse's:

* Physical conformation and size,
* A review of the Full Set of 36 X-rays,
* A Post-Sale Endoscopic Evaluation and
* A blood test checking against the use of Anabolic Steroids or Agents in the preparation of the yearling for the sales.
Firstly, Dynamic Syndications only purchase horses for syndication that have been passed by our veterinarian as suitable for purchase with no significant findings noted on any of the 36 X-rays which are read.

X-ray reports are available on 99.99% of quality yearlings offered for sale at major sales.

They are a valuable tool available to be used to determine the suitability of a yearling as a candidate for purchase.

The average cost to having a set of X-rays is only $165.

It is a Due Diligence / Quality Assurance issue. As a promoter of shares to the public, we would never promote a horse with any issues that are likely to inhibit the racing career of a horse. Whilst there is always an exception to the rule and a small number of horses may race successfully where major defects are visible on X-ray’s, there is a golden rule – If in Doubt – Rule it out!

Would you buy a house without a building and pest report? Well it’s the same principal. Some horses are the price of houses and at every sale inexperienced / amateur buyers, irresponsible participants, unscrupulous dealers, lazy or unfinancial trainers and a host of others step forward and buy horses that on X-ray have issues that are highly likely to prevent the horse making a successful racehorse. Then those horses are on-sold to the unsuspecting public. Lot’s of money is exchanged on a horse that has little to no hope making the grade.

We know trainers can break down sound horses – They don’t need to start with a problem. So why risk it?

As the saying goes: If it sounds to good to be true – It is ! Quality horses cost a lot to buy. There are a lot of professional buyers at the sales who are experienced horsemen and women. However none have X-ray vision. If a well bred, well conformed athletic horse with a commercial pedigree can be purchased well below market value, then as a potential investor serious questions and hesitation should apply.

There will always be salering bargains, however overall they are hard to find. Smart operators and professional syndicators know the marketplace values.

As a potential buyer of a share in any horse, read the veterinarian report and be satisfied the horse had X-rays available and they were read at the sale and the horse passed suitable for purchase,

Always be careful. If there are no X-rays available – ask why? Has someone got something to hide?

Even if  X-rays were not available from the vendor at the yearling sale, the promoter should themselves arrange to have a set of X-rays taken to ensure potential investors are not disadvantaged. That's due diligence.

Comment: Always compare and ensure what you are actually getting for your money – do your homework and you will enjoy the experience of racehorse ownership.
Promoters are not considered insurance agents under the Act. Our Share Price includes insurance from the fall of the hammer for a finite period. In most circumstances, that date is through to 1st November in the year of purchase of the yearling.

On this date, each shareholder may individually choose to re-insure their share at their own expense should they wish to do so.

Owners are under no obligation to re-insure. Some owners decide to re-insure, some owners choose not to re-insure. It is a matter of personal preference.

Dynamic Syndications always recommend that our owners consider their personal position and if appropriate, we do recommend that clients re-insure.

Owners should budget approximately 4% of the insured value as the anticipated annual premium. For example, if the insured value of your 5% share was $8,000 then the premium would be approximately $320.00.

The promoter does not act as an insurance agent but is able to put individual shareholders in contact with insurance providers.

On behalf of our owners, if requested we will complete and forward all necessary documentation to the relevant insurance provider.

Dynamic Syndications Managing Director has had business dealings with LOGAN LIVESTOCK INSURANCE since 1986. At our request, Logan's will contact each owner directly to determine your preferences. Owners are under no obligation to use the recommended insurance provider.

Clients are free to use the insurance provider of their choice.

Y

Yearling: A young horse, typically two years old.





The most common forms of ownership of thoroughbred racehorses are: Co-ownership or Partnership, (often referred to as a "Syndicate" of owners).

Legal advice is now advocating “Co-ownership” of racehorses as distinct from a racing “Partnership” as the preferred ownership structure where there are multiple shareholders (ownership arrangements) of horses.  The main reasons for this advice is the “joint and several” liability associated with racing partnerships which do not affect “co-ownerships” and also various tax advantages associated with co-ownership over a partnership.

Therefore Dynamic Syndications only promote 20 share “Co-ownership” horses.

Why 20 Shares ?

Under the Australian Rules of Racing the industry allows up to 20 shares in a racehorse.

As of 1st January 2017, ASIC has allowed an exemption where you may now have up to a maximum 50 participants (owners) who between them, own these 20 shares in any publicly promoted horse.

Therefore co-ownership is no longer restricted to one owner per 5% share. Two (2) or more people many join together to purchase a 5% share between them in a syndicate arrangement.

The obligation is on the promoter to ensure that at all times, the total promotion of 20 shares does not exceed a total of 50 people.


What is Co-ownership?


This term is used to describe the legal relationship between various multiple shareholders who each own an equity proportion of the horse.  Where the relationship between the various multiple owners is one of co-ownership, each co-owner (shareholder) will be entitled to receive directly their proportion of the net prizemoney (if any) won by the horse and will also be liable for their proportion of costs associated with maintaining and racing the horse.  Under co-ownership, each owner is only liable for their proportion of costs associated with maintaining and racing the horse. Co-owners are not "jointly" and "severally" liable for 100% of the costs should other owners default. The multiple owners’ interests in each horse as per the Racing Syndicate Deed are managed by Dynamic Syndications.

What is a Racing Partnership?

This term is used to describe the legal relation between various persons who collectively agree to form a partnership for the purpose of owning a racing a racehorse. The horse under this arrangement becomes the partnerships property and each owner will be beneficially entitled to their proportion of partnership income earned from racing the horse and will be liable to contribute to the partnership, an amount equivalent to their proportion of costs associated with maintaining and racing the horse.  The horse will always be owned by the partnership and not by the individual owners directly and “all” of the partners will be liable "collectively" for the debts of the partnership. Under the Australian Rules of Racing you may only have between 1-20 OWNERS of a horse. From a legal perspective, you have a Partnership or a Co-ownership. Dynamic Syndications create 20 share Co-ownership agreements.

What is a Racing Syndicate?


Should 2 - 20 people combine to buy one or more share/s in a racehorse, this situation is referred to as a "Racing Syndicate". Whilst all syndicate owners are registered with the Racing Authority, under the Australian Rules of Racing, individual syndicate members with less than a 5% equity shares are not permitted to receive individual OWNER privileges. However for that Racing Syndicate, the Syndicate name appears in the racebook and the Manager of the Syndicate receives the owners entitlement.

At Dynamic Syndications we arrange 20 share CO-OWNERSHIPS which attract FULL OWNERS PRIVILEGES.

We also assist our owners in the creation of syndicates for multiple owners to join together to purchase a share in any of our promotions.





No.

In any racing partnership created by Dynamic Syndications - you own your 5% share.

It’s not a lease, nor a fixed term contract. It’s a re-saleable asset. In reality, you have title to the share in the horse until it passes away from old age or you sell the share (whichever comes first).

You can offer your share for sale at any stage.

However, for avoidance of any doubt: There will be no ready market for the Shares.

Neither the Syndicate Manager nor the Racing Manager will be obliged to sell a Share on behalf of an Owner.

Each Owner should consider the acquisition of a Share as a long term investment for the life of the Syndicate.


Fluctuations in the value and sale price of Shares should be anticipated.  Factors which will influence both the value and sale price of the Shares include, without limitation, the following:

(a)    the skill and expertise of the individuals engaged to manage, maintain and market the Horse, as well as the manner in which
        these functions are carried out;

(b)    the race performances of the Horse;

(c)    the Horse may die or its value may be diminished as a consequence of accident, injury, contraction of disease or natural cause;

(d)    the level of demand for horses of equivalent calibre both at public auction and by private treaty;

(e)    the level of supply of horses of equivalent calibre both at public auction and by private treaty;

(f)    any change in the current conditions affecting investment in the thoroughbred horse industry, including level of prize money and taxation
        benefits available to breeders;

(g)    changing conditions within the Australian economy generally; and

(h)    the price which buyers at public auction or by private treaty are willing to pay either for the Horse, or Shares in the Horse,
        if offered for sale, may not reflect either the purchase price paid by the Offeror for the Horse or the sale price of the Shares offered
        under this PDS.


If I want out of the horse and can't find a buyer - can I give the share away?

NO (but in reality = YES)

The technical reason behind the NO answer is that there is a liability of debt being incurred on the horse on a daily basis which must be met 100%.

Each shareholder is liable for their share of the expenses.

HOWEVER in 99% of circumstances one of the other co-owners should/would agree to pick up the share.

Under the Racing Syndicate Deed there is a pre-emptive rights clause that ensures current co-owners have first right of refusal so are offered the share through Dynamic Syndications as the Administration Manager to the promotion.

Dynamic Syndications will assist facilitate the disposal of the share wherever possible.



You are contractually obligated to meet your percentage share of the expenses incurred by the horse throughout its racing and breeding career, whilst you remain the owner of that share.

During its racing career we estimate a budget  $68.75 per week, (equivalent to  $9.79 per day) over 12 months, on a worse case basis should meet all expenses.

A SHARE IN A RACEHORSE IS A TRADABLE COMMODITY


However, it should be viewed as if selling a house or car. It may take some time until a buyer can be found. Seldom is a buyer immediately available.

Under Australian Partnership Law, there are various mechanisms in place to dispose of share. In all Dynamic Syndications promoted horses we have a specific Racing Syndicate Deed which explains the process involved.

We require the co-owner wishing to sell their share to contact the Administration Manager (Dynamic Syndications) and then you as the vendor will need to arrange for an independent valuation from one of the thoroughbred Auction Houses. Then under a pre-emptive rights provision, you put the share up for sale to the other partners first.

During this period the seller may also attempt to find a buyer however existing owners and the trainer have a pre-emptive right to the share.

Any new co-owner must agree to the Terms of the PDS and Racing Syndicate Deed before the transaction can proceed.

Basically, co-owners want to sell their share for a couple of main reasons:

(a) Change in personal circumstances – e.g. Financial Hardship (bankruptcy, loss of job, etc.), change of Marital Status, Overseas re-locations, etc. or
(b) The horse is not showing enough promise as a racing prospect.

In part (a) above, if the horse is showing racing promise, it is never difficult to find a buyer from within the existing partnership structure. Should the horse not be showing enough ability then this relocates the situation into clause (b).

The clause (b) situation is unfortunately encountered in horses through injury, illness or lack of ability. They fail to reach their owners dreams. Should this be the case, the Racing Manager and the Administration Manager shall call a meeting or make formal contact with all partners with the view of dissolving the partnership. Should this be decided upon by a vote of the majority, then the preferential way of disposal of a horse is to sell it at a tried horse public auctions which are conducted each quarter at the Magic Millions or William Inglis sale yards.

Also Private Treaty sales may in rare occasions be negotiated.


WHAT WILL MY SHARE BE WORTH ?


Values swing wildly during a horse’s racing and breeding career.

This valuation swing is based around success.

In essence, a share in a horse represents Muscle, Bone and Earning Potential.

As exposed form and / or age take effect, the value will increase or decrease accordingly.

Dynamic Syndications Director and Responsible Officer is a longstanding member of the Bloodstock Agents Federation of Australia.

He will have an accurate assessment to what the horse is worth.

We require co-owners looking to sell their share to obtain an independent market appraisal from either auction house (Magic Millions or William Inglis), prior to offering any share for sale.



Information About Management Fees

Professional Licensed Promoters include Management Fees in the Product Disclosure Statement for the day to day Management of the horse throughout its Racing Career.

Management of a horse by a Promoter is considered important to most if not all investors, as certain Promoters may have extensive experience in the industry.

For example Dynamic Syndications Managing Director has been an active and independent racing industry participant, forging a career as a Bloodstock Agent and Syndicator since 1984.

Investors should consider the monthly management service and fee as detailed in the Product Disclosure Statement (and Racing Syndicate Deed) for the services provided and ask any questions of the Promoter after reading the detailed information set out below:

Investors should note that under the agreement to provide a management service, it’s only for the racing career of the horse until the co-ownership of the horse is dissolved upon racetrack retirement and does not extend beyond this into its breeding career (if applicable).

A working example was when our syndicated horse HONOR IN WAR finished 2nd in the AJC VILLIERS Stakes Gr2 behind TAKEOVER TARGET. We lodged an objection and put forward our opinion to the Stewards. Our protest was upheld and the race result was corrected – We WON !

Another working example from the opposite position was when we were first past the post with our horse MIDNIGHT AT ASCOT in the Magic Millions Country Cup on Magic Millions Day.

We were subject to a protest by the runner up where that horse’s rider said our horse interfered with his mount over the final 200m. On behalf of our owners we put forward our view that the interference claim was caused in the most part by the Runner-up. The protest was dismissed and we retained the race.

Our experiences in the Thoroughbred Industry with our Managing Director being a constant Racehorse Owner for over 35 years, having been a racehorse trainer and working hand in glove with the Australian Rules of Racing with respect to both racing and compliance, cannot be underestimated as an important asset for your horse.

The catalogue is the book which outlines in written format each horse in a sale.

Each page in the catalogue describes a different horse and their pedigree (family ancestry tree).

Each thoroughbred pedigree concentrates on the female family not the male line.

Why?
Because a mare can only produce one foal per year, whilst a Sire could cover up to 250 mares in a year. Therefore it’s the mares’ families where the commercial value of a young thoroughbred is realised.

Arguably the most important indicator for commercial value are twofold: The commercial demand of the Sire (Service Fee and Racetrack success of his progeny) and BLACK-TYPE.

What is BLACK-TYPE?

It’s the common industry term used to describe Bold Print on the catalogue page.

When a horse Wins a Stakes Race (Group 1, Group 2, Group 3 and Listed Race) the horse’s name is recorded in BOLD UPPERCASE.

If a horse was placed 2nd or 3rd in one of these Stakes Races the horse’s name is recorded in BOLD LOWERCASE. If a horse runs 4th in one of these races, no bold type is added to the horse’s name however the race is recorded on the page the 4th is in bold.

Simply the more BOLD print (BLACK-TYPE) on the catalogue page equals the more high quality horses in the female family. As a flow on, the more high quality horses the more commercially appealing the horse is to the market.

A pedigree provides extensive details about the relatives of each yearling offered (e.g. how many foals / winners the dam has produced, the race performances of each dam and their offspring).

All catalogue pages have certain structural similarities.

Horses appear in the catalogue and through the sales ring in Lot number order, beginning with Lot 1.

In the high majority of cases, Lot numbers in a sale run in the alphabetical order of the 1st Dam (mother’s) name. The catalogue starts with a random letter of the alphabet and rolls through in alphabetical order.

Each horse actually wears this Lot number as a sticker placed on its hips to identify it as the correct lot being offered in the sale ring. 

To familiarise yourself to the page layout, from top to bottom.

The majority of the information on each catalogue page in the sale of yearlings, 2-year-olds, horses in training, tried horses, weanlings and breeding stock, pertains to the dam's side (mother's / female’s) side of the family: (1st dam, 2nd dam, 3rd dam, 4th dam, etc.).

The first dam is the (mother) of the horse being sold

The second dam is the grand-dam (grandmother)

The third dam is the next generation. (Great-grandmother)

The fourth dam is the next generation (Great, Great-grandmother)


Other information contained on the page, from top to bottom such as:

LOPE DE VEGA


“…never put off until tomorrow what you can do today”

The seventeenth century Spaniard Lope de Vega was one of several literary figures credited to utter this similar idiom. It is surely good advice when it comes to securing the attention of the stallion who bears his name.

After a decade of dominant service, Lope De Vega (by Shamardal) the dual Classic winner is in demand for good reasons.

All reputable bloodstock analysts include Lope De Vega on their lists of elite stallions because they know the stats. It is near impossible to find a flaw in Lope de Vega’s production of world-class horses because this standout data is underpinned by a remarkably solid core of elite racetrack performers.

His global reach is amazing: from top-class sprinters in Australia, like Santa Ana Lane, Vega One, Vega Magic and Gytrash, to Group 1-winning milers in Europe such as Belardo, Phoenix Of Spain and Zabeel Prince, to the brilliant American runners such as Newspaperofrecord and Aunt Pearl.

They come out running as 2yo’s and thrive with age and experience.

In fact, they are better as 4yo’s than they are as 2yo’s.

All of this should be no surprise considering Lope De Vega’s racing record and pedigree.

We have seen the influence and importance of his own sire, the successful Shamardal.

Whilst that giant of the breeding barn is no longer with us, in Lope de Vega, he did provide a son of the highest-quality worthy to carry forward his Sire’s exceptional status.

Local breeders are already familiar with Lope De Vega’s prowess as a sire; after all, in Australia he has already produced five (5) Gr.1 winners: Gytrash, Santa Ana Lane, Vega Magic Vega One and Arapaho, as well as five (5) Gr.2 winners, along with five (5) Gr3 Winners and five (5) Listed Race Winners.

PEDIGREE NOTES – It’s all in the genes !

On our ratings they have scaled this mating as a MAXIMUM performance indicator.

Also this has been rated a “A+++ ” class mating with an opportunity that this mating can produce an above average racehorse when compared to the total number of horses produced by the sire to date.

This is classed as a EXCELLENT chance to produce an exceptional performer that may reach Black Type level.

This analysis is based upon Stakes Winners from around the world that have similar pedigree construction to the way the horse we have purchased was bred.

Based on the concept of "Dig for Gold where Gold has been found before", it makes sense that any sensible business philosophy should look to purchase yearlings where there has been an attempt by the breeder to replicate pedigrees of High Quality Group Winners.

Any analysis must look at the entire pedigree as whole however there are key indicators in pedigrees that expose greater insight and the propensity of the mating to produce a High Quality racehorse as compared to the average population.


CSI   "Common Similarity Index"


CSI
  is a measure of how close the pedigree of the Stakes Winner matches the hypothetical-mating.

In general, values at and above 18 indicate a strong similarity.

As a rule of thumb, if the results list shows 4 or more horses with CSI of 18 or above, it is usually a "good mating".
In this Mating:

There are 13 Stakes Winners with a strong similarity in this breeding pattern.

The Profile above shows the Age and Distance range of Stakes Winners bred with this same or closely designed breeding pattern.

Professional Bloodstock Consultants such as Dean Watt of Dynamic Syndications spend countless hours researching pedigrees and their genetic patterns and are aware when these same pedigree patterns have been replicated deliberately by the breeder in the hope that they may have bred a champion racehorse.

Often however the breeder has accidentally or by pure chance produced
a yearling to these patterns.

This is what sets our company at the pinnacle of its field.

KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE
.




A PROVEN CROSS (also known as a NICK):


A NICK = SUCCESS


The GENETICS of our horse have been bred to a "PROVEN NICK"


Genetically – this horse has been bred to be a racetrack star.


When we went to the sales we were looking first and foremost for the individual.


It has to be an equine athlete.


However being aware that over 76% of Stakes Winners come from just 20% of the foal crop each year and we can identify this 20% of the foal crop as having a pedigree graded as above, so we will ONLY search for equine athletes that are based within this graded sub-group.

In an easy to understand "rule of thumb" example : there are approximately 16,000 foals born each year. On our statistical data, we identified that 20% (3,200) produce 76% of the STAKES WINNERS annually.

Therefore the opposite to the above equation is 12,800
yearlings produce just 24% of the STAKES WINNERS annually.

So, where would you rather go looking for a Stakes Winner ?

In a pool of 3,200 that produces 76% of Stakes Winners
or
in a pool of 12,800 yearlings that produces 24% of Stakes Winners.


Simply - We leave the rest for the other industry participants to consume.
 

Whichever set of statistical data you choose to accept and rely upon for information flow, it remains constant – Simply, on its pedigree, our horse was produced upon an exceptionally good mating with  a significantly increased opportunity to produce an above average racehorse.   

Since we have matched this pedigree to our individual’s excellent conformation, size, strength and athleticism, we are convinced this horse represents a wonderful opportunity for equine investment in a quality thoroughbred.


Whilst there can never be any guarantees in thoroughbred breeding or racing and this horse would be no exception to that fact, the reality is that we would always rather start with and take advantage of sets of statistics which are weighted heavily in our favour, than to purchase another horse only bred to be average in the first instance and then, having to pray for a miracle.


It’s not pure luck or an incredible set of coincidences that produces stakes class horses.

However it’s not until we do our due diligence work and we analyse the statistical data to produce these facts does the old proverbs ring true again:


 

"The apple doesn’t roll far from the tree"

"Keep drilling where oil has been found"

"Keep digging where you find gold"


Understanding this aspect of our industry is vital.

That’s why we have such outstanding racetrack success year after year after year.

The statistics speak for themselves.

That’s why its important to deal with a Specialist !

You can't buy experience !

With over 30 years as a Bloodstock Consultant and Syndicator on his resume, Dynamic Syndications Managing Director has no peers in his industry that come close to matching resumes

OUR SALE NOTES:

A high quality example of an athletic type of yearling

~ we wanted to buy the yearling and to give him to



CIARON MAHER who we are having
such a fantastic season with again in 2023-24




 
  • Good width of jaw and corresponds with big Nostrils (for windflow capacity access)
  • Conformationally front legs are excellent with nice short cannon (which is technically very good – means longer forearm covers more ground per stride)
  • Powerful hindquarter with excellent length of to its croup and excellent hip:hock ratio (propulsion levers for driving forward)
  • Well developed Gaskins (like Human biceps = strength) which are strong and deep into hocks
  • Correct angulation to pasterns and shoulders (correct 60 degree angles)
  • Hoofs are well structured and all 4 are symmetrical with good heels.
  • Intelligent Head - Wide Forehead - Soft Kind Eye
  • Has a strong reign (neck & distance from Poll to Withers)
  • Strong well defined top line (back) with the withers set well back
  • Excellent - Deep girth (Lung capacity)
  • A top walker – purposeful, balanced, with fluid motion.
  • Stands over good ground (length to back in correct proportion to balance of individual)
  • Importantly this yearling Tracks Truly and has a Very Good Overstep (Propulsion)
  • Nice style of individual by the sire with great V8 motor (hindquarter = propulsion)



Dr Tim Roberts (Veterinarian)


"A nice horse, uncomplicated with plenty of size and scope to grow. A well-bred, athletic type, correct, forward and who is clinically very good. His radiographs were unremarkable and videoscope was Grade 1."

"He has a good action and has every chance of running as a later 2yo and importantly whatever he does as a 2yo he will improve upon. He’s a horse on conformation that will get out over a bit of ground. "

"Those European pedigrees are unlimited, because they develop a bit slower and they keep developing and you can run them later in life, they run as five and six-year-olds. He’s a nice, sound individual who should stay sound based upon his conformation and be able to get out over ground.”

"You have purchased a nice colt to aim at the classic races."



Adam Watt
(Dynamic Syndications)

"This champion stallion stamps his stock and with our colt, he looks a cookie cut of the sire."

"We had the privilege of owning one of his rare Australian yearlings when we purchased a yearling back in 2016 named Decroux who was above average winning 6 races including 3 in town plus a cup race.  When we saw this boy, he was the same style of individual as Decroux was at the same time, which piqued our interest further.

We identified this colt in the catalogue firstly by his genetic A+++ rating which made him a must to inspect then he didn’t disappoint on type."

"He’s out of an 1450m winner in England, and he’s a 3/4 brother to a 1850m Group 3 winner, and two of his directly descending 5 Dams were Champions. It’s a quality European Black-Type family and this is a potential Guineas Derby prospect.

"He looks a little more precocious than what is typical of the Lope De Vega’s so he may come to hand and be a later 2yo but realistically, he was purchased with the view he will be a Spring 3yo miler plus type.

If you like your purist’s style races, which we do, we love the Classics, then there is so much more opportunity when you get out past 2000m in Australia because the pool of horses at those distances significantly diminishes."

"He’s just a beautiful colt that will take a little time but once he gets out to 2000m I am really excited about this horse."

"We are delighted to be able to secure a LOPE DE VEGA Colt here in Australia. He was one of only 12 Yearlings foaled in 2022 in Australia to Southern Hemisphere time. There were a dozen mares imported in foal to LOPE DE VEGA to produce live foals with 8 fillies and 4 colts."

"He was just a colossal colt and a awesome opportunity with low risk X-Rays and a Grade 1 scope, by a stallion that is just unbelievably successful and works here in Australia from a quality European family.

"For us, we love buying out of European families if we want a horse that can stick. They get the trip over there and they throw that class into them compared to our limited staying genetics in the Southern Hemisphere. He’s an Guineas, Derby prospect placed into the stable capable of achieving this result for us."



 
CIARON MAHER
Trainer:

"A nice type off one of the best farms in Victoria.

"He's got the looks, by a champion sire who works here in Australia and this Colt has a high quality international pedigree. He’s got the page to be a miler to 2000m horse and looks like he should come to hand as a Spring 3yo.

"He's the colt to polish up and see if we can target the Classic Races with and make a stallion prospect out of him for his Dynamic ownership team.
I just feel he’s the ideal candidate.

"
He’s been a steal at the sale and if he's half as good as the others Dynamic have with me, then we'll be having a lot of fun."


SELECTION PROCESS

Q)
So - Why did we buy HIM? 
   
A) That's easy to answer !


Pedigree:


Commencing weeks prior to attending the sale complex:

When researching which lots to inspect in the weeks prior to the sale, we look for certain genetic factors that increase the chance of the yearling being a superior athlete.

This pedigree had certain ancestor duplications which we are seeking, to give what we consider, a balanced blend of speed and endurance. Full details of the Pedigree Evaluation is located in our Pedigree Notes Section of this website.


Veterinarian:


Dr Tim Roberts - Contracted Veterinarian to Dynamic Syndications

Our veterinarian Dr Tim Roberts inspected the yearling prior to purchase and believed this youngster to be a quality individual and a chance of being a successful equine athlete with no visual clinical issues likely to prevent it from reaching its racing potential.

Before purchase, the 42 X-Rays deposited in the sale ground X-Ray Repository facility were examined. There were no abnormal findings noted.

The horse was approved by Dr. Roberts for Dynamic Syndications to purchase in the salering.

After purchase, an endoscopic test on the horse's airway was performed and the result was the horse had normal function.

Also a blood test was performed and revealed no abnormal findings.


Fair Market Value:

 
Considering this superb genetic pedigree, the commercial value of the sire, excellent athletic conformation and overall size, strength and scope, we rated this yearling as an "MUST HAVE" purchase.

Dean Watt as a Licensed Commercial Agent and a
erstwhile Longstanding Member of the Bloodstock Agents Federation of Australia (FBAA), is acknowledged as an industry leader and approved to offer Market Appraisals as to the Commercial Valuation of thoroughbreds.

Dean Watt evaluates each yearling that passes its Veterinary Inspection as to the maximum Commercial Value after taking in such factors as:


* The Individual's Conformation
* Sales of Progeny with Similar Commercial Pedigrees by the Sire
* The Sire’s Service Fee both current and at date of Conception
* Sales of other progeny from the 1st & 2nd Dams in pedigree
   based upon the Service Fee value of the sire of that mating.
* Any Sale recorded of the Dam herself.
* Racetrack Appraisal of the immediate family (Siblings / Dam).
* Working horses in the immediate family (Likelihood of the family
   improving commercially by producing a Stakes Winner
   in the near future)
* Historical Sale Average of the Actual Sale being Conducted.
* Current Economic & Political environment.

A specific formula is applied to each of these variables and a figure is determined.

This is our Ceiling Price.

The price we are prepared to bid up to in a bidding war in the Salering.

The maximum price we set at which we will withdraw from the heat of battle.

We set a strict ceiling price on all the horses that pass Veterinarian Inspection and write that figure on the Catalogue Page of each lot that passes to ensure that we do not make bidding errors during the auction.

Having completed all our Due Diligence reviews based upon Pedigree, Conformation, Veterinary Acceptance and Market Appraisal, we are always prepared to bid up to our limit to secure what we considered is an outstanding individual.


VALUATION PRICE:



Considering HIS outstanding conformation and the strength and depth of the female family and the pedigree genetics this individual was secured at a price representing terrific value to the team at Dynamic.

We had valued the yearling at up to $160,000 (+ one bid $170,000) in line with the colt that sold at the Inglis Classic for $140,000 which we had inspected but rejected, plus the fact that over the past 5 years, the MEDIAN price for COLTS by the Sire has been $177,000.

We also believed we could secure him at less than our ceiling valuation price if circumstances fell our way.


Ballylinch Stud, Ireland - the home of LOPE DE VEGA offered a limited number of Southern Hemisphere Services to LOPE DE VEGA in September 2021 at 60,000 Euro ($95,240 AUD) which was just under half his standard service fee of 125,000 Euro ($198,000 AUD).

We were aware that over the past 5 years COLTS by LOPE DE VEGA had a Median value of $180,000.

We also knew that the mare had been imported in foal to LOPE DE VEGA and was purchased through the Magic Millions Broodmare Sale for $180,000 by Yulong Stud for their "new stallion" Tagaloa whom they have covered her with the next two seasons. The fact she was in foal to LOPE DE VEGA was an added bonus. They could sell the foal and return some of their initial investment paid for the mare.

We also where aware that YULONG STUD this year at all the yearling sales had a policy to put very modest reserves on their yearlings to meet the market, as they had bred a significant amount of yearlings in 2022.

Inquiries of the stud an hour before the colt headed into the salering revealed that they had placed an $80,000 Reserve on this colt.

That was encouraging, that a modest amount was placed on the colt but we were still of the belief he would be well found and still be good buying somewhere between $140,000 - $160,000

We made sure we engineered our bidding to land on their reserve of $80,000 and be guided by the bidding war from that point, up to our ceiling. So as you can imagine we were delighted when the gavel fell on our bid of $80,000 + GST.

This was a massive 50% ($80,000) discount to our market ceiling price appraisal of the true commercial value.

Having working relationships with so many vendors at sales over the many years we have been buying yearlings, we rely a lot on our associations to get the inside mail on Reserve Prices and Values.

It's a Win-Win


(1) The Vendor YULONG STUD sold their Colt and achieved a fair market price.

(2)
Dynamic Syndications purchased a their Colt for $80,000 less than we valued him. We pass on this saving to our owners.


This is a major advantage Team Dynamic achieves in securing high-quality yearlings at value for our owners to reap the rewards.

VETERINARY INSPECTIONS & INSURANCE


Dean Watt with: Dr. Tim Roberts (Our Vet) & Richard Logan (Logans Insurance)

“Our Due Diligence Is Your Quality Assurance”



VETERINARY REPORT:

This yearling has passed a complex physical veterinary inspection by our
Contracted Veterinarian - Dr. TIM ROBERTS.



Dr. Tim Roberts
- An integral part of Team Dynamic

Dynamic Syndications have had a long and close working relationship with

Dr. TIM ROBERTS of CENTENNIAL PARK VETERINARY PRACTICE.

Tim and Dean have developed an understanding, good working relationship and friendship.


Tim is a vital member of Team Dynamic

Tim and Dean have a Simple but Golden Rule -

"If In Doubt - Rule It Out."

We take a ZERO TOLERANCE policy on X-RAY issues.


X-RAYS being inspected in the X-Ray Repository at the Sales

We are looking for thoroughbreds with athleticism, size, strength and scope to grow into quality equine athletes.

Tim has been advising (& educating) Dean on conformation evaluation, with attention to structural defects likely to increase the risk of breakdown.

Dr. Tim Roberts is instrumental to our foundation Runners:Winners Ratio of 82.5% - which has now improved to over 90% and Runners: Prizemoney Earners over 96%.



Veterinarian Dr. TIM ROBERTS - Contracted Veterinarian

It’s no surprise that Dynamic Syndications has achieved outstanding success built on sound business philosophies of our 4 pillars: Transparency, Integrity, Client Service and Racetrack Results.

For over 15 years, Dean Watt has been using the services of astute Sydney based veterinarian Dr. Tim Roberts of Centennial Park Veterinary Practice.

Dean Watt and Tim Roberts have developed an intrinsic understanding of one another’s thought patterns and processes over these years.

Tim assisted Dean develop and refine his personal equine knowledge and heighten Dean’s awareness and understanding of the bio-mechanics of horse conformation and movement.

Over the past few years, Tim has also been mentoring Adam Watt to the same knowledge base, allowing Adam to develop a sharp eye for these same bio-mechanical conformation and movement factors. This has ensured the Team at Dynamic have the necessary succession plans in place and the vital skills demanded in such a complex working environment.

Tim is also acutely aware of Dean and Adam’s unwavering importance placed upon critical analysis of every horse. A strict policy is implemented of never allowing any horse which is not the “Best of the Best” to survive the saleyard selection culling process.


Dean, Tim & Adam watching a yearlings walking action

Both Tim and Dean have an excellent working relationship which has resulted in their high volume of winners.

By working so closely together, this formed the basis for Dynamic Syndications foundation Runners : Winners Ratio of 82.5% which has continued to grow and as at MARCH 2019 sits at 93.1%.

Dr. Roberts understands the significance for Dynamic Syndications to at all times protect our Owners interests and at all times to protect our “hard won business reputation as leading racehorse syndicators,” by allowing Team Dynamic to only purchase “The Best of the Best”.

Sound, Athletic horses with “No Significant Findings” (low risk) noted on any of the 42 X-rays available for inspection in the saleyard repository and further, each horse must then pass as “Clean” on Endoscopic evaluation.

Also as a stated business practice and as it appears in our PDS, we ensure each yearling we purchase is blood tested as it leaves the salering, to ascertain that under the Australian Rules of Racing, there is no prohibited substances present.

By being extremely focused on this area of veterinary inspections at the yearling sale, our due diligence results in Dynamic Syndications Owners being offered the maximum opportunity to achieve racetrack success.

It’s Really Simple: Dr. Tim Roberts ensures we only buy Athletic, Strong, Well Grown and Sound Thoroughbreds which he has Passed Clean on X-ray, Endoscopic Evaluation and Blood Testing.

It’s not rocket science or magic – its attention to detail.


Yearling Inspection in progress with Tim Roberts


Dr. Roberts, having been a racing surgeon for many years in South Africa, developed a keener understanding of the relationship between form and function.

That is: “What conformational defects increase the likelihood of a breakdown injury and what conformational defects have little impact?”

However, the one issue that is never questioned is X-rays. Dr. Roberts has continued to stress the importance of X-rays upon Team Dynamic for more than 15 years.

Dynamic Syndications understands and embraces Dr. Roberts Golden Rule: “IF IN DOUBT – RULE IT OUT”.

X-ray issues are never good. They usually require surgery to address the issue (if that is possible) but most certainly, it multiplies the risk of breakdown significantly and / or time lost from racetrack training through recuperation.

You would never buy a house without getting a building and pest report done – so why would you ever buy a horse without obtaining an X-ray report and the other reports available?

We are guided by a philosophy that Racehorse Trainer’s can break down 100% sound horses – so they certainly don’t need to start off with a problem !

As humans, we are not blessed with X-ray vision, so without the assistance of an experienced veterinarian reading the X-rays, buyers of horses who do not get the X-rays checked are playing Russian roulette.

Sadly we see at every sale – Horses with significant X-ray issues that are considered High Risk, are purchased, often for large sums, with little chance of being a racing prospect as the skeletal structures simply won’t be able to stand up to the rigours of training.

We have identified over the years that 8% (1 in 12.5 or 8 in every 100) of the horses we like on physical inspection, fail their X-ray inspections. That risk is far too high.

If there were no abnormalities present on X-ray (i.e. low risk), then Dr. Roberts will pass that yearling and it is approved for purchase.

Should we be successful and buy the horse in the Salering, each yearling is allowed to be examined immediately by endoscopic evaluation, to check its throat function and wind flow. Horses found with any significant issues here, the sale rules allow the buyer to cancel the sale. The same process with blood testing – any prohibited substances and the sale may be cancelled by the purchaser.

Dynamic Syndications as part of our Due Diligence reporting and Quality Assurance, will always supply a copy of our Veterinary Certificate for each horse on the webpage. We also attach this report as an annexure to our Product Disclosure Statement.

During the racing career of the horse, should any training or racing issues develop with the horse, we use Dr. Roberts as our independent consulting veterinarian, to act in conjunction with the stables own veterinarians, as Dynamic Syndications own expert.

Tim is on call for Team Dynamic should ever any need arise.



THE PROCESS:

* All yearlings that Dean identifies as possible purchases MUST pass a detailed physical examination by Dr ROBERTS.

* We re-inspect our selections with Dr. ROBERTS to discuss each horse on its merits.

* If a yearling passes this physical examination then at that point, Dr ROBERTS is engaged to:
   (1) Review the Video Endoscopic Evaluation in the repository - if that is acceptable then -
   (2) Inspect a full set of 42 x-rays held in the sale repository.

* If the yearling passes these inspections, which is only done by the fact that there were no abnormalities present of any significance (low risk) on any of the x-ray films, and the videoscope was considered Grade 1 = no issue, then the yearling is approved by Dr. ROBERTS to Dynamic for purchase.

* After being purchased, each yearling is allowed to then be examined at the sale by an endoscope to check its throat function and windflow capabilities. Even if we have checked the videoscope in the first instance, we still check post-sale to ensure no issues have developed in the interim.

* After being purchased, each yearling is also "blood tested" to ensure that there was no "prohibited substances present" as defined under the Australian Rules of Racing.

* We advise Dr. ROBERTS of our salering successful purchases and he will then review the scoping on our behalf. If a horse is found to have an issue, the sale is void and the horse is returned immediately to the vendor.

* Then Dr. ROBERTS at the end of each sale, writes a Veterinary Certificate for inclusion with our Product Disclosure Statement for submission to Racing NSW or Racing Victoria as ASIC Lead Regulators, prior to the horse being allowed to be promoted to the public.

This confirms:


* Time, Date and Place of Inspection
* Confirmation that the horse has passed Physical Inspection
* Confirmation that the horse has passed Stethoscope Evaluation
* Confirmation that the horse has passed X-ray Inspections
* Confirmation that the horse has passed Endoscopic Evaluation
* Confirmation that the horse was recommended by Dr ROBERTS as a suitable candidate
   for both purchase and for insurance
* Disclaimer ensuring clients are aware there is no potential for conflict of interests that
   Dr ROBERTS has no financial involvement with the horse, the promotion of the horse
   or with the Dynamic Syndications business.

A specific example was when Dynamic Syndications Dual Gr1 Winner HE’S NO PIE EATER was tragically destroyed after a training mishap at Randwick; the horse was insured with Logans for $5 million. This payout claim was an Australian record for any horse in training. Logans paid out the claim within 7 days of the lodgement of the claim.
