GS Racing is pleased to now be a part of the Stake Your Claim Stable, which specializes in putting together racehorse partnerships for current and prospective owners.

With purses at an all-time high at racetracks in many jurisdictions, thanks in large part to being fueled by casino subsidies, there's never been a better time than now to own a racehorse. Stake Your Claim purchases racehorses and yearlings and then offers shares in each horse, from 10% to a higher percentage of ownership.

For example, an owner wishing to purchase 10% of a horse valued at $50,000 would pay $5,000 for purchase and then 10% of monthly training and veterinary bills. That 10% ownership also means the owner receives 10% of all purse money earned (after trainer, driver and management fees are deducted) plus 10% of the horse's future sale price when it is either sold or claimed down the road. On their end, Stake Your Claim charges a small monthly fee for administration plus percentages of money earned from purses and a horse's future sale price.

Stake Your Claim handles all aspects of management of each horse and utilizes the services of several outstanding, proven trainers, who in turn use the best drivers available at the tracks at which they race.

Sound like something you'd like to be a part of? If you'd like further information about joining us and becoming a co-owner of a racehorse, please visit the Stake Your Claim Stable website or call (732) 920-6662, and they'll be glad to answer any and all questions you may have.

Please remember though, while there's nothing like a trip to the winner's circle with your horse, in the real world of competitive racing it's a rollercoaster, and you simply can't expect success in each and every start. Owning racehorses is not for the faint of heart by any means.
