"STARTING KINDERGARTEN"
There is no better person in Australia to educate young thoroughbreds than our very own Dynamic Team Member - Australian Olympian SHANE ROSE from his BIMBADEEN PARK property at Werombi on the outskirts of Sydney.
OUR COLT with SHANE ROSE
The breaking-in process is vital to give young horses the right foundation to stable life and to give them the education by “feel” to respond to the commands of the rider.
Whilst those that are quick to learn, sensible and eager to please, have a significant advantage over their peers.
On Tuesday 14 December, Day 2 of the breaking-in and education process for Dynamic Syndications two (2) fabulous yearlings we currently have on offer; we now discuss our first COLT for the New Season who is by highly successful young sire ASTERN from the 4-time Champion Racemare BETTER LIFE.
ADAM WATT from Dynamic Syndications was on hand along with Amanda Wood our contracted photographer, as SHANE ROSE went through his process of teaching our Colt to respond to commands.
We are delighted to share with our Owners and Followers these lovely photos Amanda captured on the day.

THE BEST SON OF A GREAT SIRE ~
ASTERN is by MEDAGLIA D’ORO
This sensational speed horse and Medaglia d’Oro’s Best Son anywhere in the world with a 126 Timeform rating was the Record-breaking winner of the Gr1 Golden Rose.
He’s Medaglia d’Oro’s highest-rated sprinter, too.
A magnificent individual from an exceptional family.
Out of Essaouria (by Exceed And Excel), a six-length debut winner at two.
ASTERN:
A pre-Christmas debut winner at two, plus added two Group wins.
Returned at three to win the Gr2 Run To The Rose first-up, followed that with a victory in the Gr1 Golden Rose.
ASTERN OVERVIEW:
Blending the best blood of both hemispheres –
By a World Class
Champion Northern Hemisphere shuttle sire from a High-Class Southern
Hemisphere pure precocious SPEED family.
A Stunning Specimen
Astern is a brilliant combination of the twin peaks of Darley’s Stallion Roster – MEDAGLIA D’ORO and EXCEED AND EXCEL
His biggest plus was his sensational turn of foot.
From a very strong female family full of speed. One of the strongest female families in the Australian Stud Book
Stallions in his pedigree include: Marscay, Sir Tristram, Century, Exceed and Excel, Rory’s Jester, Danehill – they are all there = Quality Speed !
It’s the Best of The Best of Bloodlines Australia can produce for 2yo speed
A superb racehorse – a high class 2yo and an elite 3yo
Astern competed in the top-shelf races throughout his wonderful career with a peak performance when winning the Gr1 GOLDEN ROSE as a Spring 3yo.
Astern graced the racetrack as a pre-Christmas debut winner at 2 at Randwick by 2.5 lengths.
Then he stepped out to win the Gr2 Silver Slipper:
At his third race he missed out on a place in the Golden Slipper when trapped wide from barrier 16.
And proved his class by backing up and winning the Gr3 Kindergarten at his next start before a spell.
He returned at three to win the Gr2 Run To The Rose first-up.
He followed that with a victory in the Gr1 Golden Rose.
Next, he was unlucky when runner-up by a head in the Roman Consul
Next time out he was runner-up in the Coolmore Stud Stakes Gr1 in Melbourne and was then spelled.
He resumed in the Gr1 TJ Smith on a Heavy 10 track and broke-down in the run and was immediately retired.
Winner of five of his nine starts, including the Gr1 Golden
Rose, Astern retired to stud the highest-rated son of leading stallion
Medaglia d'Oro.
Henry Plumptre was Managing Director of Godolphin Australia at that time and said:
"Astern is a colt of the highest quality. He is an exceptional type from a world-class family.
"His performance in the Golden Rose placed him on top of the three-year-old rankings.
"Medaglia d'Oro has been a phenomenal stallion for us (Godolphin) in
both hemispheres, and as his best son, Astern has all the credentials to
follow in his father's footsteps."
WHAT A LOOKER!
A Handsome stallion with a lovely big barrel and quality head.
He possesses the quality and length of Medaglia D’Oro with the shoulder,
depth of girth and hindquarter typical of Exceed and Excel.
Beautifully balanced individual, good strong shoulder, great
hindquarter, Good hip:hock, sweet mover, terrific stride, covered the
ground really well.
Astern is a beautifully balanced horse with a wonderful action and a
devastating turn of foot which was seen with an arrogant win in the Gr1
Golden Rose sweeping from last to first with ease.
MEDAGLIA D'ORO
The BEST COLT EVER by MEDAGLIA D’ORO – A Great Stallion – And …. His best Sprinter as Well!
ASTERN was the leader of his Generation at 3
Definition of Acceleration = ASTERN
Here’s your GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY to OWN a COLT who is the GOLDEN BOY of one of the WORLD’S BEST SIRES.

STOP PRESS: VITAL UPDATE
Belmont Park USA 2 October 21:
NICKS THAT CLICK - THIS CROSS WORKS !!!
ASTERN sired his first Northern Hemisphere Stakes Winner when SAIL BY won the Gr2 Miss Grillo Stakes over 1700m at Belmont Park.
SAIL BY
SAIL BY (Astern x Fly By (by Johar) is bred on the SAME CROSS as our Colt
JOHAR is a son of GONE WEST (by MR PROSPECTOR)
Our Colt is from Champion BETTER LIFE - a daughter of
SMARTY JONES who is a son of ELUSIVE QUALITY a son of GONE WEST
BREEDING
What initially attracted us to the colt was his genetic pedigree rating!
Whilst ASTERN was a brilliant racehorse, he is only a young sire so has had limited runners to compare how he is likely to nick with various mares by different sires.
However, we take comfort in the fact his own Sire is Champion - MEDAGLIA D’ORO.
Whilst our colt’s Dam, BETTER LIFE - is a daughter of Champion sire - SMARTY JONES.
We knew this to be a very potent cross when replicated.
On this EXACT CROSS of sire ASTERN over a GONE WEST Line broodmare, there has been:
1 Starter: 1 Winner (100%), - A Group 2 WINNER - SAIL BY
MEDAGLIA D'ORO over GONE WEST
225 Runners: 127 Winners (56%) / 12 SW (5%) / $12.3m USD
Ave Winning Distance: 1600m
Then when this awesome ASTERN Colt walked out of his box to be paraded, he presented with that elusive “WOW FACTOR” swagger reserved only for high-class individuals.
He was built in the same mould from his own sire ASTERN who himself was a chip of the block of his own sire MEDAGLIA D’ORO.

When certain crosses are on fire, they seem to work almost everytime the mating is replicated.
This cross is one that is continuing to prove its affinity for success.

PEDIGREE NOTES – It’s all in the genes!
How was the Share Price Calculated?
5% SHARE PRICE - $9,250 inc GST and ALL COSTS to 30 SEPTEMBER 2022
Valuation Price:
Considering his outstanding conformation and the strength and depth of the female family and the pedigree genetics scoring “A 491%” this individual was secured at a price representing terrific value to the team at Dynamic.
We had valued the weanling to $80,000 (+ one bid)(+ GST)
The secure the colt at $65,000 plus GST = $71,500 was a 23% ($15,000)
discount to our market appraisal of the true commercial value and this
represented exceptional value that we now pass onto our owners.
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 now yearling highly.
Dean Watt is a licensed Commercial Agent and a 32 year erstwhile 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.

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.
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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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 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)
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.

Astern - new to Jonabell in 2018 from Dynamic Syndications on Vimeo.
ASTERN OVERVIEW:
Blending the best blood of both hemispheres – by a World Class Champion Northern Hemisphere shuttle sire from a High-Class Southern Hemisphere pure precocious SPEED family.
A Stunning Specimen
Astern is a brilliant combination of the twin peaks of Darley’s Stallion Roster – MEDAGLIA D’ORO and EXCEED AND EXCEL
His biggest plus was his sensational turn of foot.
From a very strong female family full of speed. One of the strongest female families in the Australian Stud Book
Stallions in his pedigree include: Marscay, Sir Tristram, Century, Exceed and Excel, Rory’s Jester, Danehill – they are all there = Quality Speed !
It’s the Best of The Best of Bloodlines Australia can produce for 2yo speed
A superb racehorse – a high class 2yo and an elite 3yo
Astern competed in the top-shelf races throughout his wonderful career with a peak performance when winning the Gr1 GOLDEN ROSE as a Spring 3yo.
Astern graced the racetrack as a pre-Christmas debut winner at 2 at Randwick by 2.5 lengths.
Then he stepped out to win the Gr2 Silver Slipper:
Astern Silver Slipper from Dynamic Syndications on Vimeo.
At his third race he missed out on a place in the Golden Slipper when trapped wide from barrier 16.
And proved his class by backing up and winning the Gr3 Kindergarten at his next start before a spell.
Astern Silver Slipper from Dynamic Syndications on Vimeo.
He returned at three to win the Gr2 Run To The Rose first-up.
Astern - Run to the Rose from Dynamic Syndications on Vimeo.
He followed that with a victory in the Gr1 Golden Rose.
Next, he was unlucky when runner-up by a head in the Roman Consul
Next time out he was runner-up in the Coolmore Stud Stakes Gr1 in Melbourne and was then spelled.
He resumed in the Gr1 TJ Smith on a Heavy 10 track and broke-down in the run and was immediately retired.
Winner of five of his nine starts, including the Gr1 Golden Rose, Astern retired to stud the highest-rated son of leading stallion Medaglia d'Oro.
Henry Plumptre was Managing Director of Godolphin Australia at that time and said:
"Astern is a colt of the highest quality. He is an exceptional type from a world-class family.
"His performance in the Golden Rose placed him on top of the three-year-old rankings.
"Medaglia d'Oro has been a phenomenal stallion for us (Godolphin) in both hemispheres, and as his best son, Astern has all the credentials to follow in his father's footsteps."
WHAT A LOOKER!
Astern - A Closer Look from Dynamic Syndications on Vimeo.
A Handsome stallion with a lovely big barrel and quality head.
He possesses the quality and length of Medaglia D’Oro with the shoulder, depth of girth and hindquarter typical of Exceed and Excel.
Beautifully balanced individual, good strong shoulder, great hindquarter, Good hip:hock, sweet mover, terrific stride, covered the ground really well.
Astern is a beautifully balanced horse with a wonderful action and a devastating turn of foot which was seen with an arrogant win in the Gr1 Golden Rose sweeping from last to first with ease.

STOP PRESS: VITAL UPDATE Belmont Park USA 2 October 21:
NICKS THAT CLICK - THE CROSS WORKS !!!
ASTERN sired his first Northern Hemisphere Stakes Winner when SAIL BY won the Gr2 Miss Grillo Stakes over 1700m at Belmont Park.
SAIL BY (Astern x Fly By (by Johar) is bred on the SAME CROSS as our Colt
JOHAR is a son of GONE WEST (by MR PROSPECTOR)
Our Colt is from Champion BETTER LIFE - a daughter of
SMARTY JONES who is a son of ELUSIVE QUALITY a son of GONE WEST
BREEDING
What initially attracted us to the colt was his genetic pedigree rating!
Whilst ASTERN was a brilliant racehorse, he is only a young sire so has had limited runners to compare how he is likely to nick with various mares by different sires.
However, we take comfort in the fact his own Sire is Champion - MEDAGLIA D’ORO.
Whilst our colt’s Dam, BETTER LIFE - is a daughter of Champion sire - SMARTY JONES.
We knew this to be a very potent cross when replicated.
On this EXACT CROSS of sire ASTERN over a GONE WEST Line broodmare, there has been:
1 Starter: 1 Winner (100%), - A Group 2 WINNER - SAIL BY
MEDAGLIA D'ORO over GONE WEST
225 Runners: 127 Winners (56%) / 12 SW (5%) / $12.3m USD
Ave Winning Distance: 1350m
Then when this awesome ASTERN Colt walked out of his box to be paraded, he presented with that elusive “WOW FACTOR” swagger reserved only for high-class individuals.
He was built in the same mould from his own sire ASTERN who himself was a chip of the block of his own sire MEDAGLIA D’ORO.

When certain crosses are on fire, they seem to work almost everytime the mating is replicated.
This cross is one that is continuing to prove its affinity for success.
STAKES WINNERS MATRIX
Range Description = "SUPERB"
PEDIGREE NOTES – It’s all in the genes!
On our ratings they have scaled this mating as a MAXIMUM performance indicator.
Also, this has been rated a “A 491%” class
mating with an opportunity that this mating can produce an above
average racehorse when compared to the total number of horses produced
by the sire to date.
This is classed as an “SUPERB” chance to produce an exceptional performer that may reach Black Type level.
This analysis is based upon Stakes Winners from around the world that
have similar pedigree construction to the way the horse we have
purchased was bred.
Based on the concept of "Dig for Gold where Gold has been found before",
it makes sense that any sensible business philosophy should look to
purchase yearlings where there has been an attempt by the breeder to
replicate pedigrees of High Quality Group Winners.
Any analysis must look at the entire pedigree as whole however there are
key indicators in pedigrees that expose greater insight and the
propensity of the mating to produce a High-Quality racehorse as compared
to the average population.
Professional Bloodstock Consultants such as Dean Watt of Dynamic
Syndications spend countless hours researching pedigrees and their
genetic patterns and are aware when these same pedigree patterns have
been replicated deliberately by the breeder in the hope that they may
have bred a champion racehorse.
Often however the breeder has accidentally or by pure chance produced a yearling to these patterns.
This is what sets our company at the pinnacle of its field.
KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE.
A PROVEN CROSS (also known as a NICK):
A NICK = SUCCESS
The GENETICS of our horse have been bred to a "PROVEN NICK"
Genetically – this horse has been bred to be a racetrack star.
When we went to the sales we were looking first and foremost for the individual.
It must be an equine athlete.
However being aware that over 76% of Stakes Winners come from just 20% of the foal crop each year and we can identify this 20% of
the foal crop as having a pedigree graded as above, so we will ONLY
search for equine athletes that are based within this graded sub-group.
In an easy to understand "rule of thumb" example: there are approximately 16,000 foals born each year.
On our statistical data, we identified that 20% (3,200) produce 76% of the STAKES WINNERS annually.
Therefore, the opposite to the above equation is 12,800 yearlings will produce just 24% of the STAKES WINNERS annually.
So, where would you rather go looking for a Stakes Winner?
In a pool of 3,200 that produces 76% of Stakes Winners
or
In a pool of 12,800 yearlings that produces 24% of Stakes Winners.
Simply - We leave the rest for the other industry participants to consume.
Whichever set of statistical data you choose to accept and rely upon for
information flow, it remains constant – Simply, on its pedigree, our
horse was produced upon an exceptionally good mating with a
significantly increased opportunity to produce an above average
racehorse.
Since we have matched this pedigree to our individual’s excellent
conformation, size, strength and athleticism, we are convinced this
horse represents a wonderful opportunity for equine investment in a
quality thoroughbred.
Whilst there can never be any guarantees in thoroughbred breeding or
racing and this horse would be no exception to that fact, the reality is
that we would always rather start with and take advantage of sets of
statistics which are weighted heavily in our favour, than to purchase
another horse only bred to be average in the first instance and then,
having to pray for a miracle.
It’s not pure luck or an incredible set of coincidences that produces stakes class horses.
However, it’s not until we do our due diligence work and we analyse the
statistical data to produce these facts, does the old proverbs ring true
again:
"The apple doesn’t roll far from the tree"
"Keep drilling where oil has been found"
"Keep digging where you find gold"
Understanding this aspect of our industry is vital.
That’s why we have such outstanding racetrack success year after year after year.
The statistics speak for themselves.
That’s why it’s important to deal with a Specialist!
You can't buy experience!
With over 35 years as a Bloodstock Consultant and Syndicator on his resume, Dynamic Syndications Managing Director Dean Watt has no peers in his industry that come close to matching resumes.

OUR COLT
Dr Tim Roberts (Veterinarian)
Dr. Tim Roberts
"I gave him an 8+ score which was
the highest I gave in the whole sale. Against all the weanlings I saw, I
rated him in the Top Five colts in the catalogue. He was the complete
athlete with size, strength, scope and the appearance he can be an early
type. We saw a few Astern's at the Magic Millions we liked but they
sold beyond the boy’s budget and were not as good as this bloke. To find
this colt in a weanling sale was a huge bonus and I encouraged Adam and
Dean they could buy him with confidence so make him a target. I am
delighted the team purchased him.”
Dean Watt (Dynamic Syndications)
Adam & Dean Watt - Dynamic Syndications
“Champion racemare from a female family of Champions. Add in Classic bloodlines it is an awesome combination. Mix-in the best
bloodlines from around the globe, to a broodmare proven to produce then it adds significantly to a recipe
for success.
Next, add in the fact that genetically, the colts on the
cross are striking hot then the odds are stacked
in our favour.
So, when the individual presents from the box as a
handsome equine athlete, and he’s clean on x-rays and scope the planets
aligned. We made this Colt our primary target and went all-in to buy
him.”

SELECTION PROCESS
Q) So - Why did we buy him?
A) That's easy to answer!
Pedigree:
Commencing weeks prior to attending the sale complex:
When researching which lots to inspect in the weeks prior to the sale,
we look for certain genetic factors that increase the chance of the
yearling being a superior athlete.
This pedigree had certain ancestor duplications which we are seeking, to give what we consider, a balanced blend of speed and endurance.
Conformation:
Saleyard notes on this horse were:
STRONG - CLASSICS TYPE - ATHLETIC -
EXCELLENT ACTION - CORRECT -
POWERFUL HINDQUARTER -
GOOD CONSTITUTION - CLEAN X-RAYS & SCOPE
Veterinarian:
Dr Tim Roberts - Contracted Veterinarian to Dynamic Syndications
Our veterinarian Dr Tim Roberts inspected the yearling prior to purchase
and believed this youngster to be a quality individual and a chance of
being a successful equine athlete with no visual clinical issues likely
to prevent it from reaching its racing potential.
Before purchase, the 42 X-Rays deposited in the sale ground X-Ray
Repository facility were examined. There were no abnormal findings
noted.
The horse was approved by Dr. Roberts for Dynamic Syndications to purchase in the salering.
After purchase, an endoscopic test on the horse's airway was performed and the result was the horse had normal function.
Also, a blood test was performed and revealed no abnormal findings.
Fair Market Value:
Considering this superb genetic pedigree, the commercial value of the
sire, excellent athletic conformation and overall size, strength and
scope, we rated this yearling as a "HIGHLY DESIRABLE CANDIDATE" purchase.
Dean Watt as a licensed Commercial Agent and a longstanding erstwhile Member of the Bloodstock Agents Federation of Australia, is approved to offer Market Appraisals as to the Commercial Valuation of thoroughbreds.
Dean Watt evaluates each yearling that passes its Veterinary
Inspection as to the maximum Commercial Value after taking in such
factors as:
* The Individual's Conformation
* Sales of Progeny with Similar Commercial Pedigrees by the Sire
* The Sire’s Service Fee both current and at date of Conception
* Sales of other progeny from the 1st & 2nd Dams in pedigree
based upon the Service Fee value of the sire of that mating.
* Any Sale recorded of the Dam herself.
* Racetrack Appraisal of the immediate family (Siblings / Dam).
* Working horses in the immediate family (Likelihood of the family
improving commercially by producing a Stakes Winner in the near future)
* Historical Sale Average of the Actual Sale being Conducted.
* Current Economic & Political environment.
A specific formula is applied to each of these variables and a figure is determined. This is our Ceiling Price. The price we are prepared to pay up to in a bidding war in the Salering. The maximum price we set at which we will withdraw from the heat of battle.
We set a strict ceiling price on all the horses that pass Veterinarian
Inspection and write that figure on the Catalogue Page of each lot that
passes to ensure that we do not make bidding errors during the auction.
Having completed all our Due Diligence reviews based upon Pedigree,
Conformation, Veterinary Acceptance and Market Appraisal, we are always
prepared to bid up to our limit to secure what we considered is an
outstanding individual.
Valuation Price:
Considering his outstanding conformation and the strength and depth of the female family and the pedigree genetics scoring “A 491% & B+ 103%” this individual was secured at a price representing terrific value to the team at Dynamic.
We had valued the weanling at $80,000.
The secure the colt at $65,000 + GST was a 23% ($15,000)
discount to our market appraisal of the true commercial value and this
represented exceptional value that we now pass onto our owners.

This diagram is offered to give clients an understanding of conformational defects that many horses possess.
It is part of our Due Diligence to reject horses with defects that are likely to increase the risk of injury or break down.

VETERINARY REPORT:
This yearling has passed a complex physical veterinary inspection by our
Contracted Veterinarian - Dr. TIM ROBERTS.
Dr. Tim Roberts - An integral part of Team Dynamic
Dynamic Syndications have had a long and close working relationship with
Dr. TIM ROBERTS of CENTENNIAL PARK VETERINARY PRACTICE.
Tim and Dean have developed an understanding, good working relationship and friendship.
Tim is a vital member of Team Dynamic
Tim and Dean have a Simple but Golden Rule -
"If In Doubt - Rule It Out."
We take a ZERO TOLERANCE policy on X-RAY issues.
X-RAYS being inspected in the X-Ray Repository at the Sales
We are looking for thoroughbreds with athleticism, size, strength and scope to grow into quality equine athletes.
Tim has been advising (& educating) Dean on conformation evaluation,
with attention to structural defects likely to increase the risk of
breakdown.
Dr. Tim Roberts is instrumental to our foundation Runners:Winners Ratio
of 82.5% - which has now improved to over 90% and Runners: Prizemoney
Earners over 96%.
Veterinarian Dr. TIM ROBERTS - Contracted Veterinarian
It’s no surprise that Dynamic Syndications has achieved outstanding
success built on sound business philosophies of our 4 pillars:
Transparency, Integrity, Client Service and Racetrack Results.
For over 15 years, Dean Watt has been using the services of astute
Sydney based veterinarian Dr. Tim Roberts of Centennial Park Veterinary
Practice.
Dean Watt and Tim Roberts have developed an intrinsic understanding of
one another’s thought patterns and processes over these years.
Tim assisted Dean develop and refine his personal equine knowledge and
heighten Dean’s awareness and understanding of the bio-mechanics of
horse conformation and movement.
Over the past few years, Tim has also been mentoring Adam Watt to the
same knowledge base, allowing Adam to develop a sharp eye for these same
bio-mechanical conformation and movement factors. This has ensured the
Team at Dynamic have the necessary succession plans in place and the
vital skills demanded in such a complex working environment.
Tim is also acutely aware of Dean and Adam’s unwavering importance
placed upon critical analysis of every horse. A strict policy is
implemented of never allowing any horse which is not the “Best of the
Best” to survive the saleyard selection culling process.
Dean, Tim & Adam watching a yearlings walking action
Both Tim and Dean have an excellent working relationship which has resulted in their high volume of winners.
By working so closely together, this formed the basis for Dynamic Syndications foundation Runners : Winners Ratio of 82.5% which has continued to grow and as at MARCH 2019 sits at 93.1%.
Dr. Roberts understands the significance for Dynamic Syndications to at
all times protect our Owners interests and at all times to protect our
“hard won business reputation as leading racehorse syndicators,” by
allowing Team Dynamic to only purchase “The Best of the Best”.
Sound, Athletic horses with “No Significant Findings” (low risk) noted
on any of the 42 X-rays available for inspection in the saleyard
repository and further, each horse must then pass as “Clean” on
Endoscopic evaluation.
Also as a stated business practice and as it appears in our PDS, we
ensure each yearling we purchase is blood tested as it leaves the
salering, to ascertain that under the Australian Rules of Racing, there
is no prohibited substances present.
By being extremely focused on this area of veterinary inspections at the
yearling sale, our due diligence results in Dynamic Syndications Owners
being offered the maximum opportunity to achieve racetrack success.
It’s Really Simple: Dr. Tim Roberts ensures we only buy Athletic,
Strong, Well Grown and Sound Thoroughbreds which he has Passed Clean on
X-ray, Endoscopic Evaluation and Blood Testing.
It’s not rocket science or magic – its attention to detail.

Dr. Roberts, having been a racing surgeon for many years in South
Africa, developed a keener understanding of the relationship between
form and function.
That is: “What conformational defects increase the likelihood of a
breakdown injury and what conformational defects have little impact?”
However, the one issue that is never questioned is X-rays. Dr. Roberts
has continued to stress the importance of X-rays upon Team Dynamic for
more than 15 years.
Dynamic Syndications understands and embraces Dr. Roberts Golden Rule: “IF IN DOUBT – RULE IT OUT”.
X-ray issues are never good. They usually require surgery to address the
issue (if that is possible) but most certainly, it multiplies the risk
of breakdown significantly and / or time lost from racetrack training
through recuperation.
You would never buy a house without getting a building and pest report
done – so why would you ever buy a horse without obtaining an X-ray
report and the other reports available?
We are guided by a philosophy that Racehorse Trainer’s can break down
100% sound horses – so they certainly don’t need to start off with a
problem !
As humans, we are not blessed with X-ray vision, so without the
assistance of an experienced veterinarian reading the X-rays, buyers of
horses who do not get the X-rays checked are playing Russian roulette.
Sadly we see at every sale – Horses with significant X-ray issues that
are considered High Risk, are purchased, often for large sums, with
little chance of being a racing prospect as the skeletal structures
simply won’t be able to stand up to the rigours of training.
We have identified over the years that 8%
(1 in 12.5 or 8 in every 100) of the horses we like on physical
inspection, fail their X-ray inspections. That risk is far too high.
If there were no abnormalities present on X-ray (i.e. low risk), then
Dr. Roberts will pass that yearling and it is approved for purchase.
Should we be successful and buy the horse in the Salering, each yearling
is allowed to be examined immediately by endoscopic evaluation, to
check its throat function and wind flow. Horses found with any
significant issues here, the sale rules allow the buyer to cancel the
sale. The same process with blood testing – any prohibited substances
and the sale may be cancelled by the purchaser.
Dynamic Syndications as part of our Due Diligence reporting and Quality
Assurance, will always supply a copy of our Veterinary Certificate for
each horse on the webpage. We also attach this report as an annexure to
our Product Disclosure Statement.
During the racing career of the horse, should any training or racing
issues develop with the horse, we use Dr. Roberts as our independent
consulting veterinarian, to act in conjunction with the stables own
veterinarians, as Dynamic Syndications own expert.
Tim is on call for Team Dynamic should ever any need arise.
THE PROCESS:
* All yearlings that Dean identifies as possible purchases MUST pass a detailed physical examination by Dr ROBERTS.
* We re-inspect our selections with Dr. ROBERTS to discuss each horse on its merits.
* If a yearling passes this physical examination then at that point, Dr ROBERTS is engaged to:
(1) Review the Video Endoscopic Evaluation in the repository - if that is acceptable then -
(2) Inspect a full set of 42 x-rays held in the sale repository.
* If the yearling passes these inspections, which is only done by the
fact that there were no abnormalities present of any significance (low
risk) on any of the x-ray films, and the videoscope was considered Grade
1 = no issue, then the yearling is approved by Dr. ROBERTS to Dynamic
for purchase.
* After being purchased, each yearling is allowed to then be examined at
the sale by an endoscope to check its throat function and windflow
capabilities. Even if we have checked the videoscope in the first
instance, we still check post-sale to ensure no issues have developed in
the interim.
* After being purchased, each yearling is also "blood tested" to ensure
that there was no "prohibited substances present" as defined under the
Australian Rules of Racing.

* We advise Dr. ROBERTS of our salering successful purchases and he will
then review the scoping on our behalf. If a horse is found to have an
issue, the sale is void and the horse is returned immediately to the
vendor.
* Then Dr. ROBERTS at the end of each sale, writes a Veterinary
Certificate for inclusion with our Product Disclosure Statement for
submission to Racing NSW or Racing Victoria as ASIC Lead Regulators,
prior to the horse being allowed to be promoted to the public.
This confirms:
* Time, Date and Place of Inspection
* Confirmation that the horse has passed Physical Inspection
* Confirmation that the horse has passed Stethoscope Evaluation
* Confirmation that the horse has passed X-ray Inspections
* Confirmation that the horse has passed Endoscopic Evaluation
* Confirmation that the horse was recommended by Dr ROBERTS as a suitable candidate
for both purchase and for insurance
* Disclaimer ensuring clients are aware there is no potential for conflict of interests that
Dr ROBERTS has no financial involvement with the horse, the promotion of the horse
or with the Dynamic Syndications business.

Their son, Richard Logan joined the company in 1984.
Richard is a fellow of the Australia & New Zealand Institute of
Insurance and Finance and the National Insurance Brokers Association of

Richard is now the Managing Director of Logans following the sudden death of Bob at the Easter Broodmares Sales in 2007.
This was a tragic loss to his countless number of friends, clients and the horse industry overall.
Quality, practicality, experience and teamwork are of paramount
importance in today's highly competitive market. This criteria, plus

that suits our needs.
Richard Logan and Dean Watt have been working closely together since
1984. Logans have assisted us with several claims during this period and
we are delighted with the service and the quick payout periods.
A specific example was when Dynamic Syndications Dual Gr1 Winner HE’S NO
PIE EATER was tragically destroyed after a training mishap at Randwick;
the horse was insured with Logans for $5 million. This payout claim was
an Australian record for any horse in training. Logans paid out the
claim within 7 days of the lodgement of the claim.
At Dynamic, our clients gain the benefit of over 30 years of our
dealings with Logans together with the one insurance provider and the
obvious advantages this association carries.
