Written by the company

Here at Old Gold Racing, we're warm, welcoming… and a little bit mad. We believe that everyone, whether they own a whisker or a tail, deserves to be treated like a sole owner. That’s why you won’t find another syndicate out there that delivers the same in-depth updates, events, deals, and benefits as Old Gold Racing. And that’s why 99% of customer Google reviews are 5*. But, despite all the benefits, the real thrill comes when you cheer a horse that you own, know and follow down the final straight. Trust us, it's like nothing else! For more information, please head to our website or give us a call. #OwnAPieceOfTheAction

I have enjoyed being a part owner of a few horses on the Old Gold Racing.
They keep you updated and have special offers occasionally.
For the average cost of £60 per share it's affordable for ordinary punters like me.
To watch your horse win a race makes it all worthwhile.
The aim isn't to win lots of money it is to enjoy racing and support all the hard working trainers, staff and other people involved.

Great company

Old Gold Racing are great with communication. With weekly updates I always feel well informed. Staff I've interacted with have been friendly too. I bought my partner shares in a horse for Christmas and he's enjoyed following it's progress so far. Thanks

A great way to create lots of amazing memories

I've had a thoroughly great time with Old Gold Racing, from seeing the horses at the yard, meeting up at events and going to the races. The staff are brilliant and really try to provide a memorable experience for everyone. If you are looking to try race horse ownership for the first time, then give them a go.

Who needs to be a millionaire …?!

I bought my first Old Gold Racing share five years ago. Right from the start the team were welcoming and organised friendly stable visits and weekly updates. The team behind the scenes work tirelessly to make sure everyone enjoys their involvement. I've now been involved with more than a dozen Old Gold horses and loved all of it! The live updates from the racecourse every time your horse runs make you feel like you're there in the paddock, even if watching in secret from work! You don't have to wait days afterwards for an emailed report, you get video feedback from the jockey and trainer immediately after the race. Winning an Owners badge, patting your horse in the winners enclosure and having a glass of bubbly with the other owners is priceless. Who wants to be a millionaire? Old Gold make you feel like one.

Rebel Tribesman

Have shares in Rebel Tribesman. Met Jamie Snowdon at his Yard and chatted to him during the Lambourn open day. He was really friendly and excited about Rebel’s potential. Then met Daisy and the Old Gold Team at their stall. It’s like being part of an exciting family. The O.G.R. App and email updates are frequent and very informative. We’re very happy to be part of the family and looking forward to hopefully being in the winners enclosure with Rebel during his long and successful racing future

I am enjoying every minute of ‘ownership’ of my horses( albeit only small shares ) but I really do feel that I own a whole horse. The staff are brilliant and the other owners I have met are very friendly.
We are kept so well informed and trainers go out of their way to do so.

First class micro-share ownership experience

This is not an April fool's wind-up - Old Gold is a first class organisation, consistently providing excellent (and regular) communication, informative content and an affordable / vfm route into better enjoying, understanding and actively participating in the sport of horseracing. Much better than just watching on the TV! 🙂🏇👍

Becoming involved in horse racing…

Becoming involved in horse racing syndicate ownership is a marvellous way to engage and learn more about the courses and trainers and the wellbeing of the bloodstock.
Old Gold has given access to personalities and new people, it is a great way of getting a new circle of friends.
Initially the popularity of the syndicates suggested getting to the race meetings was unlikely. How wonderful to have been proved wrong.

Ive been with old gold for just under 2 years x ive found the experience fabulous. Not being able to afford a racehorse outright its a great opportunity to experience high end trainers x visits without huge expenses. Dont expect massive returns just enjoy it 😊

Horse Racing is one of my guilty…

Horse Racing is one of my guilty pleasures and OGR have enlightened me to the aspects of ownership.

The weekly updates and post/pre race build ups are second to none. At OGR you truly feel involved in every step of the process. There's a lot more i could write but I'm keeping it simple to attract the eye of people interested in enjoying ownership.

I have not a signal negative about OGR , it's been a pleasure and a joy to be a part of.

The best way to understand what it feels like is to buy some shares. I Have 3 now Girl Friday, Vicountess Nelson and Answer That.

My Old Gold Experience

I have been a member of racing syndicates before but Old Gold Racing is by far the best.
Weekly updates about all of the horses that ran that week and a personal update on your own horses in the syndicate.
I have 3 horses so far and looking forward to getting another.
It makes the races so much more fun when you have a vested interest in the horses.
Lots of fun.

Top racing club for ordinary people

Old Gold Racing gives ordinary people like us the opportunity to own a share in a racehorse that ordinarily we couldn't dream about . it may only be a small share but Old Gold make you feel as if it really is your horse . We have shares in John Barbour and Spadestep . As a racing club they are fantastic.

I thought I would hate being part of a large syndicate having spent a lifetime riding and competing on my own and a couple of friends horses. However, I have loved every minute of it and enjoy the updates, videos and information that are sent regularly. You really feel like an owner and all the staff are very helpful making it feel inclusive. It’s a fabulous way to be part of racing. Thank you very much Old Gold
