    Our Racehorse Trainers    
         
    Ownaracehorse acts as a bloodstock agent on your behalf - finding horses and trainers who will deliver top value for our shareholders. Unlike other syndicate managers or racing clubs we actively choose different trainers and different types of horses in order to deliver the value our customers demand.

Training racehorses is an art, as well as a science. The successful trainer needs to understand breeding, horse physiology and psychology as well as be aware of the races available to his horses and what they will need to win. Often trainers will specialises in a particular code (such as flat or jumps) or even certain types of races within that code. Many trainers are known for doing well with just sprinters on the flat, or for only producing top quality middle distance horses.

We don't have only one trainer - we ensure there are trainers up and down the country so that your racehorse will run within easy distance of where you live. We are also very choosy about the horses we send to each trainer  - because this choice will determine whether the horses, and therefore our shareholders are successful or not. Whilst the choice of trainer is important, matching the correct horse with the right trainer is imperative.

At Ownaracehorse we work with a wide range of shareholders, owners and trainers and their horses. Generally we specialise in up and coming trainers who are working hard to establish themselves. Often these types of trainers will work harder to be successful with the grades of horses we are buying, as they are attempting to rise through the ranks.

Currently, we have four trainers:
 
Ollie Pears
Based in Norton, Malton, North Yorkshire. Trains flat horses with a tremendous strike rate. An up-and-coming trainer who we are sure will emerge to be a major Northern based trainer in the coming seasons.  Ollie has excellent facilities, being in a major training centre, and as he has a number of highly rated horses in his yard he is used to travelling all over the country to race them. He has runners as wide apart as Goodwood, over to Newmarket and then up to Musselburgh during a normal racing season.
   
Philip Kirby
Based at the North's biggest training centre at Middleham, Philip trains both flat and jumps horses, but has made his mark in the jumping fraternity.  He has only been training since 2008 but has already proven himself to be a very astute horseman and has an enviable strike record with his older horses.  He races his horses in the North, but also sends them up to Scotland and down to the Midlands tracks when the right opportunity presents itself. He is a trainer to follow, as we are sure he will be hitting the big time very soon.
   
Derek Shaw
Derek is based in Leicestershire, near to Melton Mowbray.  He has an excellent yard with his own private gallop and all the usual facilities you would expect from a successful trainer.  Derek is renowned for his expertise when handling All-Weather horses and regularly get 25-30 winners during the winter. He races his horses all over the Midlands and also the London All-Weather tracks. In the last two years he has trained a number of good 2YO's.
   
Jeremy Gask
Jeremy was originally a very successful trainer in Australia, but came to the UK five years ago.  Based at Sutton Veny near Bath, he sends his horses all over the South and Midlands, being a regular at Bath, Kempton, Lingfield, Sandown, Goodwood, Ascot and the courses on the south coast.  He has enjoyed considerable success, including a win in Group company and in Dubai with Medicean Man. 
   

If you do become an owner with Ownaracehorse you will have the opportunity to visit the yard where your horse is trained. On these days it becomes apparent the level of hard work which is required to run a successful racehorse stables. If we can help trainers place shares in their horses we are providing a valuable service to both them and our shareholders.

We also visit the trainers yard on a regular basis to add the information content to the Ownaracehorse website and keep in touch with other horses in the trainers yard.

In terms of choosing the horses we feature there are no set rules, but most of the horses we feature will already have run. This way, we can know you will get value for money from your purchase. However, we are always looking for progressive sorts which will perhaps be unexposed at the moment - but have a good possibility of improving during the share period. On certain occasions we may also claim a horse from races - an effective means of getting a horse which is known to be fit, ready to run and has shown promise.

If you would like to learn more about our trainers and horses, don't hesitate to call our helpdesk - we are happy to discuss exactly which horses and trainers will be best for you.
