Documented Ownership

A professional shared-ownership arrangement should clearly document each owner's interest, applicable costs, administration, prize-money arrangements and ownership conditions. RaceX provides ownership documentation for its current horse offers.

Racing Operations

Training, race entry and race-day decisions are handled through licensed racing professionals and the applicable racing procedures. RaceX coordinates owner administration and communication around those professional racing decisions.

Prize Money

RaceX receives 75% of prize money after disbursements to the trainer, jockey and stable. Prize money received by RaceX is then paid to owners according to their ownership percentage.
