We were alerted to the fact this COLT was a result of a FOAL SHARE AGREEMENT between KIA ORA Stud and COOLMORE Stud.
Part of the TERMS & CONDITIONS of such Agreements requires that the Yearling must be offered for UNRESERVED SALE at a PUBLIC AUCTION.
Knowing this is a major advantage for

and will not be "pushed along" to a vendors inflated reserve price.
* Firstly we liked the colt significantly and it was Sound & Right of Wind and Limb.
* Secondly we liked the fact he was a Foal Share so we may be able to buy him at an under market value - Which we did!

* OUTSTANDING VALUE
Considering his excellent conformation and the strength and depth of the female family and his pedigree genetics this colt
was secured at a price representing to the team at Dynamic a
significant discount to our market appraisal of his true commercial
value.
We valued the Colt at $120,000 + (plus 1 bid up to $130,000) (2 x $60,000 Conception Service Fee).
He
was above average on conformation and his Dam was a terrific racehorse
by a proven Sire and proven Broodmare sire in LONHRO which is excellent.
To purchase this horse for $70,000
+ GST, was a salering "steal" and we believe we secured a high-quality individual by the
sire at a massive 42.6% discount ($50,000) and this represented great buying that we now pass onto our owners.
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.
Dr Tim Roberts (Veterinarian)
"A High Quality individual with a good action and plenty of scope to grow and develop into a lovely 3yo."
"He is a well bred, neat, correct, 1400m-1600m type, who is clinically good
and his radiographs were clean and his video scope was Grade 1."
"A horse to confidently aim at the classic 3yo mile races."
Adam Watt (Dynamic Syndications)
"American Pharoah is a sire we targeted this year and
having purchased a progeny by him last year that are showing us plenty.
"However we had discovered a trend with this breed which is that they
are certainly not precocious 2YO types but require distances from 1600m
plus as 3yo and older horses - just like their Dad.
"Also broodmares featuring Danzig in the female line, genetically
haven't worked to date with the Sire. Yet he has proved he is a top
stallion by claiming Champion First Crop Sire and Champion Second Crop
Sire in the USA.
"We wanted a yearling but not from a Danzig / Danehill line and this colt from a LONHRO mare ticks the box.
"This was a nice athletic type, technically correct, with a good overstep
and good size and bone and bred to be a 3YO.
"He
is also BOBS and BOBS Extra eligible which is terrific so we will keep
an eye out in the future for the right big bonus races to target.
"With
the Sire on Fire in the Northern Hemisphere and a strong Female Family
when our vet gave us the green light, he added up to a MUST TARGET COLT "
JASON DEAMER (Trainer):
"He’s
a quality colt, strong and correct, he's an athlete. I really like these
American Pharoah' s. They are not natural 2yo's but are late maturing
types and this fellow will be the same. Whatever he does at 2, he will
be better at 3 and 4.
"This colt that really fills the eye and I am excited to be given the opportunity by Dynamic to train him and I look forward to his arrival."
"This colt is the perfect candidate and I can't wait to train him for his new Dynamic ownership team."

Above are 3 diagrams which show the correct angulation and conformation
structures of yearlings desired for racing.
This Yearling met the above criteria and was considered an
OUTSTANDING chance of racetrack success !!!

He is one of the greatest performers in the USA since legendary US champions NATIVE DANCER, SEATTLE SLEW and SECRETARIAT and the thoroughbred world is indeed lucky he was made available by COOLMORE to horse breeders in both hemispheres.
America’s Triple Crown winner is a handsome bay horse standing proudly at 16.2 hands high.
With perfect conformation and bone to match, he has massive jaw and nostril width for maximum rapid airflow, and he must have a heart the size of a lion to fit within his deep expansive girth.
An iconic racehorse with a wonderful physique, he is now
leaving the image of himself in his progeny and they have represented
him with great success seeing him be crowned Champion First Crop Sire
and Second Crop Sire in the USA with all those Stakes Winning 2yo’s and
the Breeders Cup Juvenile Sprint Winner and third placegetter on turf !

A Gr2 and Listed winning USA race filly WAR HEROINE (USA) won 4 races 1 at 2 from 1300m to 1600m and $240,945 USD in only 6 starts.
Uniquely WAR HEROINE is a daughter of Australian champion sire LONHRO.
She was bred in the USA in 2015 as a result one of the years that that LONHRO shuttled to Darley Studs Kentucky operation.
WAR HEROINE is a daughter of WAR TIGRESS (by War Chant). She won 3 races and was a Stakes Winner and Stakes Performed another 3-times.
Whilst the 3rd Dam is TIGRESA (by Tejano) won 6 races and was stakes-placed at Keeneland.

The pedigree suggests he will be a sprinter / miler as a 3yo and older racehorse.

PEDIGREE EVALUATION
AMERICAN PHAROAH - THE SIRE
- A SON OF PIONEEROF THE NILE
AMERICAN PHAROAH at STUD - The WORLD'S BEST RACEHORSE of 2015
WAS MATED OVER
WAR HEROINE (USA) - THE DAM
- A Stakes Winning daughter of LONHRO
Which Created Our Yearling COLT:
Our COLT is bred on what is described as the:
AMERICAN PHAROAH x LONHRO Cross:
This is no current data on this cross as it has only been replicated once which produced a filly.
This is only the second foal and First Colt bred on this cross
Because Lonhro was shuttled to the USA that was the first time Sons of Octagonal > Zabeel > Sir Tristram have had their bloodlines introduced.
Therefore it has never been crossed with Sirelines of PIONEEROF THE NILE > EMPIRE MAKER.
All good things have to start somewhere!
So if your going to try something new then its vital to do so with a
young, high-quality race filly that was at the best of her peer group
and WAR HEROINE is exactly that.
AMERICAN PHAROAH was a Racing Sensation and World Champion.
WAR HEROINE was a dual Stakes Winner claiming 4 wins in a 6 start career.
Both AMERICAN PHAROAH (1700m - 2400m) and WAR HEROINE (1300m-1600m) were Group Winners as 3yo's
This gives us comfort that despite the lack of data, he's a magnificent type and his Dad & Mum were top class!
This gives us great inspiration that we shall achieve racetrack success.
SPRINTER/MILER Genetics:
Optimum Distance: 1200m - 1600m
The Profile above shows the Age and Distance range of
Stakes Winners bred with this same or closely designed breeding pattern.
The larger the Blue Circle, the more winners in that category.
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.

advantage - and this hands on approach keeps many of the costs well down
for his Owners.

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 a erstwhile 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.
The Share Price for each promotion includes:

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) -
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.
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.

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.

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.

Blood may be seen coming out of the horse's nostrils, known as "epistaxis," although it is typically discovered by a fibre optic endoscopic examination after exercise. Hot, humid weather and cold are known to exacerbate the problem. Less than one bleeder in 20 shows signs of epistaxis. In Australia, a horse is banned from racing for 3 months after the first Bleeding Attack. If it happens again during a race the horse is banned from racing again in Australia for life. Australian racing is drug free, medication to prevent bleeding is prohibited.

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 $68.75 per week, (equivalent to $9.79 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).

We watch the race with our Owners and post-race include you in the inner sanctum to hear the report directly from the jockey and then, we attend the post-race rooms with our owners to watch replays and explain the how the race unfolded.
* We escort our Owners to the area to lead your horse back to the Winners Circle for feature race wins.

* We represent ALL OWNERS should your horse be involved in a Protest Hearing after a race. Dynamic Syndications Managing Director has been a continual Racehorse Owner since 1981 and held a Racing NSW Trainers Licence in the SERA. We are well placed to deliver an informed debate on behalf of our Owners to any inquiry. This can be vitally important as many thousands of dollars rests on the results.
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)
