A HIGH QUALITY INDIVIDUAL
This horse passed Dr. Tim Roberts Veterinary inspection and also passed X-Ray inspection and Endoscopic inspection.
He was considered by Mick Price, Dr. Tim Roberts and Dean Watt as an outstanding colt and was placed in the top colts at the sale by both looks and his HIGH CLASS pedigree rating score at the saleyard. He was considered "A SUPERB COLT" and we all wanted him.
It’s easy to rattle off the exciting quotes about this individual. Simply he’s stunning.
Q) Why did we buy him ?
A) That's easy to answer !
Pedigree: Before
the sale: When researching which lots to inspect prior to the sales 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. This yearling represented that and was
rated in our BEST IN THE SALE range.
Conformation: An
excellent looking individual with very good conformation. Athletic,
stands over good ground; has a good length of reign, good angulations
to pasterns and shoulders. This yearling has good width of jaw, a deep
girth and strong hindquarter, is a terrific walking individual, very
purposeful and strong and tracks truly. Importantly this yearling has a
very good overstep.
Veterinarian:
Our veterinarian Dr Tim Roberts inspected the yearling prior to
purchase and believed this youngster to be a quality individual and an
outstanding chance. Before purchase, 42 X-Rays were examined with no
abnormal findings noted. After purchase an endoscopic test on the
horse's airway was performed and found to have normal function.
Fair Market Value: Considering
this superior genetic pedigree, the commercial value of the
family, excellent athletic conformation and overall strength, We rated
the this yearling as an "A+++" purchase.
We set a strict ceiling price on the horse and were quite prepared to
bid up to our limit to secure what we considered was an outstanding
individual.
I valued the colt at $100,000 + (plus 1 bid up to $110,000) and we were prepared to pay our ceiling price.
To purchase this horse for just $75,000 + GST I believe we secured a quality individual at close to a 25% discount and this represented exceptional value.
OUR SALE NOTES
A B C

conformation structures of yearlings desired for racing

EDUCATORS “BREAKING - IN” REPORT
Educator: SHANE ROSE
(Australian Olympian - Equestrian)
Property: BIMBADEEN PARK (NSW)
ABOUT THE YEARLING:
NOT A SINGLE DOUBT / RAVEN PROTECTOR Colt -
"This
colt is expected to be an early 2yo type. He could well be aimed at
better 2yo races in the Autumn. He has broken-in terrific and showed
natural class. A free moving individual who stretched out over ground
with a effortless action. He worked with a balanced easy flowing gait
and was very easy to educate coming to hand quickly. Mentally he was a
naturally forward mature type who took onboard every experience with
natural ease. He worked well in a pair when matched with another horse
on the track. He walked into the barriers, stood quietly and cantered
out the front gates when opened.
I
am delighted to report by the time I had finished, he was a very nice
colt that moved very well. With a little further physical development he
will furnish into a spectacular 3yo. He gave me a good feel under
saddle. It would be of no surprise to me if he was to be a pre-Christmas
2yo. I consider he will furnish into a spectacular Autumn 2yo and will
make into a magnificent 3yo colt in the Spring.
I am very happy to report to you that he displayed natural ability and gave me the feeling he may have above average ability".

Trainer Profile
MICK PRICE
CAULFIELD RACECOURSE
A PERMANENT TOP TRAINER
IN AUSTRALIA
Since taking out his licence in 1991, Mick Price has firmly established himself as one of the leading racehorse trainers in Australia.
Some of the stakes performed horses to be trained by Mick Price include:
Heart Of Dreams, Gallica, Alamosa, Light
Fantastic, Rubiscent, Bel Mer, Velocitea, Shinzig, Pompeii Ruler, Rustic
Dream, Slavonic, Vocabulary, Kempinsky, French Bid, Halibery,
Intelligent Star, Mr Trickster, World Peace, Kylikwong, Tanith,
Chattanooga, Amtrak, Red Dazzler, Pure Harmony, Doubting, La Bella Dame
etc.
In 2003 Mick trained the trifecta in the Group
3 Blue Diamond Preview with Halibery, Gaelic Princess and Roedean,
while World Peace took out the race for the stable in 2004.
Mick kept his fantastic record with
two-year-olds intact by winning both the colts and fillies divisions of
the Blue Diamond Preludes in 2005 with Perfectly Ready and Doubting.
In 2007 he continued his stakes winning trend
by taking out the Group 1 Underwood Stakes with Rubiscent, the Group 2
Sandown Guineas with Schilling and the Group 3 Sandown Stakes with Gotta
Have Heart, just to name a few.
Mick has also tasted success in the Futurity
Stakes (G1), Railway Stakes (G1), Goodwood Handicap (G1), Toorak Hadicap
(G1), Norman Carlyon Stakes (G2), Angus Armanasco Stakes (G2), AAMI
Vase (G2), Swettenham Stud Stakes (G2), Bill Stutt Stakes (G2), Moonee
Valley Cup (G2), Woodstock Stakes (G2), Kewney Stakes (G2), Yallambee
Stud Stakes (G2), JJ Liston Stakes (G2), Craiglee Stakes (G2) and been
placed in the Caulfield Guineas (G1), Yalumba Stakes (G1), 1000 Guineas
(G1), Victoria Derby (G1), VRC Oaks (G1), Blue Diamond Stakes (G1),
Manikato Stakes (G1) and C. F. Orr Stakes (G1) among others.
In 2008/2009 Season was highly successfule
with Light Fantastic winning the Group 2 JJ Liston Stakes. The Sth Yarra
Stakes Group 3 was won by Vivacious Spirit. Group 1 New Zealander
Alamosa won the Group 1 Toorak Hcp and Damselfly won the Group 3
Thoroughbred Club.
In total, Mick won six Group 1 races, five
Group 2 events, five Group 3 events and six Listed races for the season
among his massive total of 124 winners for the racing year.
In the 2009/2010 Mick trained his 16th Group 1 winner with Velocitea taking out the Goodwood.
Mick Price has consistently trained over 100 winners per season in the last six years and his strike rate is second to none.
The 2010/11 racing season continued to see Mick Price go from strength to strength.
Mick Price Racing was 3rd in the 2010/11 VIC Trainers Premiership
Another highly successful
racing year for the Mick Price Racing Stables and on paper it was a year
chock full of tremendous results including $4,701,000 in prizemoney,
third position in the Victorian Metropolitan Trainer’s Premiership
(whilst the Peter Moody stables juggernaut rolled on, Mick Price was
only 2.5 wins behind runner-up Mark Kavanagh), Third position in the
Victoria Country Trainer’s Premiership and 7th position in the Overall
Australian Trainer’s Premiership with a Winning Strike Rate of 19.4%
including 120 race wins and 169 placed.
By Mick Price’s own lofty
standards of racing excellence, he believes that despite the impressive
record he say’s that he was disappointed by the results.
Had a few close photo finishes gone Mick’s way, he would have been a clear second position.
“Oh well that’s racing but it
would have been so much better for our owners and the team had we had a
fairer share of racing luck.”
Adelaide
has always been a happy hunting ground for the Mick Price Racing
Stables and again it proved to be the case in 2010/11 as they plunder
the respectable prize money and dry tracks.
“We won 12 races from 33 runners in Adelaide this season so the strike rate of 36% is good.” Price said.
“I would like to thank every
owner who has contributed there hard earned and assure you that we will
be trying to improve on our results. We have good staff who love their
horses and work hard all year round.”
“We need the 2011/12 racing
season to be successful again for all concerned and we will be doing our
utmost here at Caulfield to continue to improve”.
MICK PRICE 1 August 2011.
Facilities
Mick has 70 boxes located at Caulfield racecourse in Melbourne with a variety of stables and yards that can cater for any individual horse's needs.
Caulfield has five different surfaces for
horses to work on including turf, synthetic and sand tracks, a safe
swimming pool and two tracks for trot and canter work. We have a modern 8
horse truck, access to a therapeutic water treadmill and less injuries
due to good, safe facilities.
The stable have a comprehensive network of pre-trainers available, utilising the state of the art facilities throughout Victoria, as well as various beach and water walker facilities.
As well as the stable environment, horses can
be freshened throughout their preparation by spending time at Mick's
farm in Lysterfield, just 30 minutes east of Melbourne.
Summary:
If you want to be treated as an owner and not a
number and when you, like Dynamic Syndications, believe customer
service and information is vitally important to the enjoyment of
racehorse ownership as much as racetrack success - then there is little
doubt the Mick Price Racing Stables are at the elite level of racing
stables in Victoria.
At Dynamic, we consider Mick Price an
outstanding horseman with excellent facilities, outstanding workflow
systems and possess the attention to detail that ranks him equal to his
peers at the top of his field.

ABOUT OUR COLT'S SIRE
WHY DID WE BUY A
NOT A SINGLE DOUBT COLT ?
It’s
very important that we advise potential owners as to why we brought a
colt by NOT A SINGLE DOUBT to offer for sale. It wasn’t a fluke !
The
fact is NOT A SINGLE DOUBT was one of the fastest (if not the fastest)
2yo I ever had the privilege of being involved with. In 2003 Dean Watt
was syndicating yearling’s through his own company Dean Watt Bloodstock
but only placing them with the one Randwick based trainer.
That
was a time when we syndicated horses of the caliber of POLAR SUCCESS
(Golden Slipper), SAVABEEL (Cox Plate & Spring Champion), ECONSUL,
(Caulfield Guineas), BRADBURY’S LUCK (Magic Millions), etc.
However
in Dean’s opinion, the best horse in the stable at that time was the
flying machine NOT A SINGLE DOUBT. Unfortunately the public never got to
see his true brilliance as he suffered a fetlock injury in a barrier
trial before the Todman Stakes in preparation for the Slipper and was
spelled after that race.
On
debut he won at Rosehill by 5 lengths over subsequent Caulfield Guineas
Winner and stablemate Econsul. Then he went to Wyong for the Strawberry
Hills Slipper as a lead into the Magic Millions and won with ease
defeating Oratorio. He then went to Randwick 3rd
up and won the Canonbury Stakes LR defeating Valse Des Fleurs. Then he
went to the Magic Millions where he ran second to Dance Hero
(unfortunately most observers realised pilot error cost him a victory in
the Millions when judgement calls in transit left the horse too big a
task).
He then had a short break and trialled at Randwick
but came out of that trial with a fetlock issue. The stable tried to
patch it up but failed when the horse raced well below par when running 3rd in the Todman to Charge Forward and Dane Shadow and was immediately spelled.
The horse was taken off the Randwick trainer and then sent to Tony Vasil in Melbourne
and whilst he won the Zedative Stakes, the injury never fully recovered
and the colt was not nearly as brilliant a 3yo as a result.
Without
any question in our mind, NOT A SINGLE DOUBT was the most naturally
gifted 2yo athlete we had ever seen in a era where we were exposed to
outstanding racetrack stars.
I
always promised myself (and clients) I would buy a NOT A SINGLE DOUBT
yearling that had the same characteristics and conformation of the sire
as he had displayed as a young horse.
I
have only ever purchased 2 yearlings by the stallion. The first was a
filly in 2008 from the mare Athenia. She was in my mind perfect and I
paid $70,000 for her. Tragically she was killed in an accident whilst
being broken-in.
I had to
then wait until 2011 to buy the next one. What I considered was the next
perfect specimen by the stallion. A colt from the mare RAVEN PROTECTOR.
In the meantime, the sire has now had 3 crops of racing age and finished Champion First Season Sire and then ran 3rd
on both the Second Season and Third Season sires premiership. He has
produced 15 stakes performers in just 3 crops and started from a bargain
basement price at Arrowfield Stud of just $12,500 service fee. His fee
has now jumped to $24,500 for the 2011 season.
This
stallion will keep getting better and better as a source of quality
racehorses especially as the quality of the mares he covers improves.
There is little doubt that the mare RAVEN PROTECTOR is one of only a
handful of elite racetrack mares with a quality pedigree that the
stallion has covered and we are excited about our colt’s future.

NOT A SINGLE DOUBT's rapid rise through the ranks of Australia's
young sires has been a major story of 2010/11. By early June, he had a
firm hold of third position on a highly competitive 3rd Season Sires'
list with earnings of more than $4 million. That was also enough to put
him inside the top 20 on the General Sires' table.
Magic Millions star KARUTA QUEEN and Western
Australian stakes winner SINGLE SPICE have helped him to second position
on the Australian 2YO Sires' list.
His 3YO performers are headed by impressive Group 3 winners SQUAMOSA (also Group 1-placed in Sydney) and CASTLETHORPE (in South Africa), while his 4YOs feature Melbourne-based multiple stakes winner DOUBTFUL JACK, ALWAYS CERTAIN (Singapore) and Tai Sing Yeh (Hong Kong).
The soundness, consistency and good
temperament NOT A SINGLE DOUBT imparts allow his progeny to make the
most of rewarding opportunities in city and bonus races. Current season
winners in that category include Barsinola, Cavallo Pazzo, Exploitable
Doubt, Flourishing, Jackpot Queen, Knot Out, Pink Power &
Unanimously.
A LEADING 2ND SEASON SIRE IN 2009/10
Stakes
winner DOUBTFUL JACK, and progressive 2YOs No Hesitation, Spirited
Eagle and Squamosa were among the 43 winners that powered Not A Single
Doubt's steady rise up the 2009/10 Australian 2nd Season Sires' list,
where he finished 3rd by winners and wins, and 5th by earnings.
DOUBTFUL JACK's outstanding 6.5 length victory
in the $200,000 VRC Winter Championship Final 1600m LR on 10 July
encouraged trainer Peter Moody to target major spring Group races with
the now 4YO gelding, winner of six of his 12 starts and almost $375,000.
Not a Single Doubt was represented by four
other Australian stakes performers in 2009/10: multiple Group
placegetter Absolute Faith, G2-placed Sweepstaking, G3-placed My Girl
Helen and stakes placed Stars Aligned.
His success extends beyond Australia into the key markets of Asia.
From a handful of runners, Not A Single Doubt was represented in
2009/10 by Hong Kong winners Tai Sing Yeh (five wins) and Enhanced
(formerly Absolute Soda), and in Singapore by Always Certain, the winner
of three races and S$342,045, and placed in the Singapore Guineas
Sing-1, Stewards Cup Sing-3 and Singapore Sprint Sing-3.
Not A Single Doubt went on to earn the title of Australia's Champion First Season Sire (by winners) in 2008/09 with a season tally of 13 individual winners.
A BRILLIANT SPRINTING SON OF REDOUTE'S CHOICE
Not
A Single Doubt was the first stakes winning son of REDOUTE’S CHOICE to
stand at stud. The high class record breaking 2YO and stakes winning 3YO
blends the blood of Australia’s most prolific source of speed and precocity of the last half century: DANEHILL, STAR KINGDOM, and RORY’S JESTER.
Not A Single Doubt hails from a
stallion-making family with his dam a half sister to the outstanding
sire in SNIPPETS. He is also closely related to the FORENSICS and ZIZOU
who ran the quinella in the 2007 STC Golden Slipper S. G1.
With runners like the 2011 $2m Magic Millions
2YO Classic-RL winner Karuta Queen, Squamosa and Doubtful Jack in his
early crops, Not a Single Doubt has had a successful start to his stud
career at Arrowfield proving so popular with breeders that he covered
189 mares in 2010.
However this wonderful start as a sire is no
surprise when you consider his speed on the track and the fact that he
is by a champion sire and hails from the family of Snippets and
Forensics.
A talented sprinter who won four of his 10
starts at two and three and was second twice, Not a Single Doubt (ex
Singles Bar by Rory’s Jester) joined his sire at Arrowfield Stud in 2005
where he looked after 128 mares at a fee of $13,750, a fee that has
remained unchanged in six seasons, although by 2010 his book had swelled
to 189 mares, his biggest harem.
When Not A Single Doubt began covering, his
sire Redoute’s Choice was commanding a fee of $220,000 (it would rise to
$330,000 in 2007 and 2008, before settling at $176,000 in 2010 in light
of world economic conditions) and although his major win came in the
Listed Zeditave Stakes (1200m) at Caulfield, Not A Single Doubt had
displayed great speed at two in winning his first three races in
succession, culminating in the Listed Canonbury Stakes (1100m) at
Randwick and before that the Strawberry Hill Slipper (1000m) at Wyong
and finishing second to 2YO Triple Crown winner Dance Hero
(three-quarters of a length) in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic (1200m)
and with the third placegetter four lengths back.
What’s more Not A Single Doubt is out of a
mare by Golden Slipper hero and excellent sire (especially of two
year-olds) Rory’s Jester and from the same family as a great Arrowfield
favourite Snippets, a multiple Gr.1 winner, leading sire and winner of
the inaugural Magic Millions 2YO Classic.
Arrowfield chairman John Messara rightly
believed that Not a Single Doubt was a “moral” to get just the horses so
admired by Australian trainers, owners and punters, that is early
comers with plenty of speed who train on. Once again he’s backed a
winner with this handsome son of Redoute’s Choice. From 136 starters to
mid-March, Not A Single Doubt has a Runners:Earners ratio of 85.3%. He
has sired 86 winners (63.27%) and a further 19 placed runners of $7.4m.
He has five stakes winners and nine stakes placed runners and this
season looks to have a super two year-old in Karuta Queen.
Karuta Queen took her earnings past $1.4m with
her easy Magic Millions win at just her fourth start. The Neville
Layt-trained filly scored by 3-3/4 lengths at Rosehill (1100m) on debut
on October 9, and then scored there again on October 23, before
capturing the Magic Millions Wyong 2YO Classic on December 5 and then
the Magic Millions Classic (1200m) at the Gold Coast by 2-3/4 lengths on
January 15 for regular rider, apprentice Tommy Berry, beating Combat
Kitty (General Nediym) and Schiffer (Snitzel) and running 1:11.00 on the
slow track.
Previously heading his young sire’s honour
roll is another very talented performer in Doubtful Jack with eight wins
in 16 starts and earnings topping $575,000, his major win coming in the
VRC Bobbie Lewis Quality-Gr.3 (1200m). Another talented runner from
that first crop is Always Certain (Akaaber (USA), inbred 4mx3m to
Danzig) who has won five races in Singapore including the Committee’s Prize-SINGr.3 (1600m) after earlier finishing runner-up in the Singapore Guineas-SINGr.1.
His second crop includes Squamosa, winner of
his first three starts including the Run for the Rose-Gr.3 and then a
narrow second behind Toorak Toff in the STC Golden Rose-Gr.1 (1400m).
Not a Single Doubt’s other stakes performers
include Stakes Winner Single Spice, also the Gr.1 placed Absolute Faith,
third in the Storm Queen Stakes-Gr.1 and runner-up in the Caulfield
Autumn Classic-Gr.2, the Gr.2 placed Sweepstaking (End Sweep), the Gr.3
placed My Girl Helen (Whiskey Road), Hong Kong performer Tai Sing Yeh
winner of six races and $615,000 and runner-up in the Premier
Bowl-HKGr.3, the South African Gr.3 placed Castelthorpe a winner of two
and placed twice in eight starts, also the Listed second Stars Aligned,
the Listed second Regal Flame a winner of five races in NZ, and
Indisputable, a Listed placed performer and also a winner in just four
starts.
Other good winners for Not a Single Doubt
include Single Play, So So Sure, Unanimously, Great Man, My Cookie
Monster, No Halos, Exploitable Doubt, Not a Snip a Doubt, Tuscan Breeze
and city winner and Spring Champion Stakes-Gr.1 fourth placegetter
Definite Choice.
Not A Single Doubt was a $210,000 Gold Coast
Magic Millions buy. Winner of four races and twice runner-up in 10
starts, Not A Single Doubt’s career began in spectacular fashion when he
cruised to a five length win over subsequent Gr.1 winner Econsul over
1100m at Rosehill in 1:04.31 as the $1.70 public elect on November 29,
2003.
Second up on December 11, he tackled the
Strawberry Hill Slipper (1000m) at Wyong, beating Oratorio and More than
Hugs in a track record 56.21 and the colt was back in action on
December 20, winning the Listed Canonbury Stakes (1000m) by 2.25 lengths
from Valse des Fleurs and with Suite two lengths back in 58.03, as the
$1.45 favourite.
In the Gold Coast Magic Millions 2YO Classic
(1200m) on January 10, Not a Single Doubt was three-quarters of a length
second to subsequent Juvenile Triple Crown winner Dance Hero in record
time and with third-placed Marie Madeline four lengths away. That day he
was the victim of an ill judged ride and was desperately unlucky not to
have won.
Early favourite for the Golden Slipper, his
two year-old campaign came to a halt when he aggravated an injury in
running he carried into the Todman Slipper Trial-Gr.2 behind Charge
Forward.
Off the scene for about nine months, Not A
Single Doubt’s owners removed the horse from his Randwick trainer and
transferred the horse to Tony Vasil in Melbourne where he resumed racing
on January 1, 2005 in the Railway Handicap-Gr.1 in NZ and then won his
first race for Tony Vasil, beatingDanehill Express and Volitant in the
Listed Zeditave Stakes at Caulfield on January 26, running the 1200m in
1:10.0.
He then was a close sixth behind Elvstroem,
Savabeel, Lad of the Manor (Makybe Diva 7th) in the Orr Stakes-Gr.1
(1400m), and then Not a Single Doubt was beaten a half-length by
subsequent Gr.1 winner Shinzig in the Autumn Stakes-Gr.3 (1400m) on the
same track, Danehill Express was third and Econsul fifth. The three
year-old was retired to Arrowfield after finishing ninth in the VRC
Newmarket-Gr.1 behind Alinghi at his next start.
Not A Single Doubt is a powerful horse whose
physique reflects the speed so inherent in his pedigree. He carries a
4m,5mx4m cross of Northern Dancer and 5m,5f,6mx5m cross of that horse’s
dam Natalma, along with a 6mx6f cross of Star Kingdom (IRE), a 6fx6m
cross of Relic and has five lines of Mahmoud in his seven generation
pedigree (to go with his dam’s three lines of close relative Nasrullah).
Like his sire, he is doing well with mares from a wide variety of sire
lines.
A BRILLIANT SPRINTING SON OF REDOUTE'S CHOICE
REDOUTE'S CHOICE, B. c. 1996, Danehill (USA) -- Shantha's Choice, by Canny Lad.
Entered Stud in 2000.
Sire of 658 runners, 490 winners (74.5%), 71 stakes winners (10.8%), 55 stakes placed (8.4%).
Sire of the winners of over $AUS66.2 m.
Not A Single Doubt was the first stakes
winning son of REDOUTE’S CHOICE to stand at stud. The high class record
breaking 2YO and stakes winning 3YO blends the blood of Australia’s most prolific source of speed and precocity of the last half century: DANEHILL, STAR KINGDOM, and RORY’S JESTER.
Not A Single Doubt hails from a
stallion-making family with his dam a half sister to the outstanding
sire in SNIPPETS. He is also closely related to the FORENSICS and ZIZOU
who ran the quinella in the 2007 STC Golden Slipper S. G1.

sold to $160,000, averaging $77,890 (40 sold). His second crop sold to

He is rated an “A+++” class mating with the chance to produce an exceptional performer at Black Type level.
This
analysis shows Group Stakes Winners from around the world that have a
similar pedigree 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 professional breeders look to replicate pedigrees
of champion runners and the analysis should look at the entire
pedigree.
A PROVEN NICK :
NICK = SUCCESS RATE
Her Genetics – Bred to a "PROVEN NICK"
Genetically
– he’s bred to be outstanding. When we went to the sales we were
looking first and foremost for the individual. She had to be an equine
athlete. It’s an incredible set of coincidences until you analyse the
statistics and then the old proverb rings true again
“The apple doesn’t roll far from the tree”.
So, it makes sense to
"keep drilling where oil has been found"
"keep digging where you find gold"
Full report of on this pedigree is located in the documents section at the top of this webpage.
It’s all in the genes !
"Common Similarity Index" is a measure of how close the pedigree of the Graded Stakes Winner matches the hypothetical-mating.
In
general, values 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. If it shows 2 or more horses with
CSI above 20, it is usually an exceptional mating.
A
20/20 Mating occurs when a pattern has 2 or more Graded Stakes Winners
with CSI values above 20. This indicates that this pedigree is
exceptional as there are at least two superior horses with a very
similar pattern.
Or colt is rated way above EXCEPTIONAL on this mating!
16 Stakes Winners are rated 18 or higher (4 is considered good)
11 Stakes Winners are rated 20 or higher (2 is considered exceptional)
Whilst Champion Mare MAKYBE DIVA bred on a very similar pattern to our colt was rated 16.

The
chart shows the success of racehorses bred on the same cross at various
distances. The larger the dot the more success the cross has produced
at that range. This shows the horse is predomiantly bred to be a strong
sprinter.
Whichever
sets of statistical data you choose to accept for information flow, it
remains constant – Simply, on pedigree this is an exceptionally good
mating with a significantly increased opportunity to produced an above
average racehorse.
Since
we have matched the pedigree to his excellent conformation and
athleticism, we are convinced this colt represents a wonderful equine
investment opportunity in a quality thoroughbred.
Whilst
there can never be any guarantees in thoroughbred breeding and this
colt would be no exception to that fact, the reality is that we would
always rather take advantage of sets of statistics that are weighted
heavily in our favour than to purchase horses bred to be only average in
the first instance and then have to pray for a miracle !
HE'S A SUPER COLT
STRONG / TOUGH / WELL BALANCED
ALL THE NECESSARY QUALITIES FOR RACING
C’MON - LIVE THE DREAM !!!!
* RACE A COLT WITH THE PEDIGREE AND
CONFORMATION TO AIM AT THE QUALITY RACES AND
* TO BE TRAINED BY THE TOP TRAINER IN AUSTRALIA -

VETERINARY REPORT
“Our Due Diligence Is Your Quality Assurance”
This yearling passed a complex physical veterinary inspection by our contracted veterinarian
Dr. TIM ROBERTS.
Dr Roberts has
been working closely with Dean Watt as Dean’s contracted veterinarian at
yearling sales and stable work for longer than 10 years. Both Tim and
Dean have an excellent working relationship which has resulted in the
high rate of success on the racetrack.
Tim , Dean and Adam (The Apprentice) inspecting a yearling's "Action"
as it is being paraded at the sales.
Tim has been an instrumental factor in Dean’s success.
X-RAYS being inspected in the X-Ray Repository at the Sales
All yearlings that Dean identifies as possible purchases MUST pass
a detailed physical examination by Dr Roberts. If a yearling passes
this examination then Dr Roberts and his equine practice partner Dr
Brett Warren inspect a full set of 42 x-rays. If the yearling passes
this inspection and the vets concur that there were no abnormalities
present on x-ray then the yearling is approved for purchase. After being
purchased, each yearling is allowed to be examined at the sale by
endoscope to check its windflow.
Our yearling was examined endoscopically and was found to normal in appearance and function.
Dr Brett Warren - Dr Tim Roberts partner in the
Equine Endoscopy Service veterinary practice.

What is the Share Price & ..... What will be the Ongoing Holding Costs?
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) -
Estimate only of total fees and expenses of maintaining, spelling, training and racing the Horse, excluding: race entry fees for group races, and the cost of any extraordinary (non-routine) veterinary and other treatments, including surgery
Owners should budget for any horse trained by a Premiership Leading Trainer at a
Sydney or Melbourne Metropolitan Racetrack an average of:
$10.00 + GST = $11.00 per day > ($70.00 + GST = $77.00 per week) >
($305 + GST = $335 per month) > ($3,653 + GST = $4,018 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.
How was the share price calculated ?
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).
SALEYARD COSTS: Sales expenses incurred in Team attending sale apportioned pro-rata across all yearlings purchased for syndication (Staff Transport, Accommodation, etc.) + Consultancy Fee to our appointed Independent Bloodstock Consultant for individual inspections of All yearlings to determine final lots to submit for veterinary inspection pro-rata across number of yearlings purchased for syndication + Miscellaneous costs of professional photographers + pedigree ratings software fee + apportioned pro-rata across all yearlings purchased for syndication.

both you and the stable or spelling farm. A simple telephone call to

How do I know if the horse I am interested in purchasing a share in is physically ok?
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.
Why do some syndicators offer shares without an x-ray report but most do? Are x-rays important?
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.
Insurance
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.
A-Z Glossary of Australian Horse Racing Terms including Slang, Lingo and Sayings
Heighten your racing experience and increase your enjoyment as an Owner in the Sport of Kings by understanding its commonly used terms, slang, lingo and sayings.
Below is a comprehensive glossary of horse racing and veterinary terms designed specifically for Dynamic Racehorse Owners to help understand some of the more unusual words which have been adopted in horse racing.
Horse racing dates back hundreds of years and has acquired some interesting use of the English language from all around the world which is now common place in everyday conversation.
A
Acceptor: A horse that has been declared by the owner or trainer to run in a race.
Age of Horse: Race horses all celebrate their birthdays on the same day. This makes it easier to keep track of breeding and records.
In the southern hemisphere (Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore) horses celebrate their birthday on the 1st of August each year.
In the northern hemisphere (United Kingdom, Ireland, France, USA and Canada) horses celebrate their birthday on the 1st of January each year.
All Clear: The correct weights allocated to a horses depending on the type of race they are in, including jockey, gear and any lead that is required to make up the specific weight.
All In Betting: A bet taken usually at fixed odds early in betting.
Also Ran: A horse who finishes out of the money.
Anterior: Towards the front.
Apprentice - Junior jockey indentured to a trainer for a four year apprenticeship. An apprentice can claim a reduction of up to 4kgs in the weight carried by the horse. As the jockey wins more races the amount they can claim is reduced. Claim appears next to their name in the racing guides (e.g. 1.5kg)
Apprentice Claim: Weight concession to an apprentice rider.
Approximates: The approximate tote odds on offer before the final pool is closed.
Articular cartilage: Cartilage that covers the ends of bones where they meet in a joint.
Ataxia: Loss or failure of muscular coordination.
Atrophy: To waste away, usually used in describing muscles.
Average-Earnings Index (AEI): A breeding statistic that compares racing earnings of a stallion or mare's foals to those of all other foals racing at that time. An AEI of 1.00 is considered average, 2.00 is twice the average, 0.50 half the average, etc.
B
Back at the knee: A leg that looks like it has a backward arc with its centre at the knee when viewed from the side.
Backed Off The Map: A horse heavily backed in betting.
Backward: Horse that is still physically immature and / or mentally immature.
Back Up: Refers to a horse who races for a second time in a short space of time, 7 days or less.
Bad doer: A horse with a poor appetite, a condition that may be due to nervousness or other causes.
Bagman: Bookmakers associate responsible for settling up on bets at the track.
Bailed Up: A runner racing inside other runners waiting for clear galloping room.
Bandage: The distinctive strips of cloth wound around the lower part of a horse’s legs (this is used to protect against injury).
Banker: One horse who is a standout selection in a race for exotic bets e.g. Quinellas, Exactas, Trifectas etc.
Barrier Blanket: assists horses who resent being loaded in the starting gates. The blanket is attached to the back of the stall once the horse is loaded and remains behind when the horse jumps.
Barrier Draw: The ballot held to decide the barrier a horse will start from.
Barriers: What they call the starting gates the horses come out of at the start of the race.
Bar shoe: A horseshoe closed at the back to help support the frog and heel of the hoof. It is often worn by horses with quarter cracks or bruised feet.
Bay: A horse colour that varies from a yellow-tan to a bright auburn. The mane, tail and lower portion of the legs are always black, except where white markings are present.
Benchmark: Under this system the weight a horse carries at its next start is determined immediately after its previous race, according to the merit of that run. Each Benchmark point equals half a kilogram.
Birdcage: A portion of the racecourse where horses are paraded before the start of the race. Birdcage is also known as the celebrity room at large race days such as the Melbourne Cup in Australia.
Bit: Part of the Bridle, the metal bar that is placed over the horses tongue. When a horse gets its tongue over the bit (or ‘Chokes Down’), the jockey has less control over the horse and the horse struggles to breath correctly.
Black: A horse colour which is black, including the muzzle, flanks, mane, tail and legs unless white markings are present.
Black-booker: A horse to follow after watching its most recent race.
Blacksmith: A specialist in equine hoof care (a Farrier)
Blaze: A generic term describing a large, white vertical marking on a horse's face. The Jockey Club doesn't use blaze, preferring more descriptive words. See snip; star; stripe.
Bleeder: When a horse that bleeds from the lungs when small capillaries that surround the lungs' air sacs (alveoli) rupture. The medical term is "exercise-induced pulmonary haemorrhage" (EIPH).

Each horse offered for sale must have no less than 36 X-Ray views submitted.
Y
Yearling: A young horse, typically two years old.
Am I joining a partnership or syndicate? ..... What is the difference?
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.
Am I locked into the Share as a Co-Owner?
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.
What obligations am I under when I agree to become a Co-Owner in the horse?
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 $77.00 per week, (equivalent to $11.00 per day) over 12 months, on a worse case basis should meet all expenses.
If I want out - how do I get out? & ..... What will my share be worth?
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.
Management Fees - Why do I pay them & ..... Do I get Bang for Buck?
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.

How to Read and Understand a Horse Sale Catalogue Pedigree Page
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:
Lot Number Assignment
Name of Vendor
Where the horse is located at the sales complex, (Stable Number and Box Number Assignment)
Colour/Sex and Foaling Date of the horse
Four generation tabulated pedigree
Sire Information: Delivered in Short Form including: Synopsis of the sire's race record (including honours he may have earned) and highlights of his career as a stallion.
Female Family: Information about successful members of the horse's female family.
