Frequently Asked Questions

SELECTION OF RACE HORSES.

ANFIELD SPORTS has at its disposal a high-class team of bloodstock consultants who have many years of experience behind them in selecting a racehorse. Horses are purchased were value is to be had as a horse does not know his price .The highest ever amount paid for a horse 16.5 million dollars The Green Monkey  has never won a race so there is an element of luck which we put on our side.

Typical racehorse to be selected:

• Well bred Colts
• Horses in training.
• Well bred Fillies- BIG resale potential.
• Potential stallions.
• Importation of yearlings.

Shareholdings are they tradable.

Yes there is a value and you the shareholder have a right to sell your shares but you must first offer them to ANFIELD SPORTS to sell on your behalf to other shareholders in the company. Should ANFIELD SPORT  not e able to sell your shares you may apply to sell them yourself to a client approved by the shareholders.
.

WHAT OBLIGATIONS AM I UNDER IN THE COMPANY.

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. It cots approximately R5500 per month to maintain a racehorse.  

IF I WANT OUT - CAN I GET OUT ?

YES, but depending at what stage you would like to get out and if a buyer is ready available is depending on what price you will receive for your shares in your horse. A share in a racehorse is a re-salable 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. We require the partner wishing to sell their share to contact the Administration Manager and 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.
Basically, partners 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.), 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. 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 shareholding in this asset. Should this be decided upon, then the preferential way of disposal of a horse is to sell it at a tried horse public auctions which are conducted form time to time. Also Private Treaty sales may be negotiated.

WHAT WILL MY SHARE BE WORTH?

Values changey during a horse's racing and breeding career. How long is a piece of string .The valuation is based around success. In essence, a share in a horse represents blood lines and Earning Potential. As exposed form and / or age take effect, the value will increase or decrease accordingly.

A bloodstock agent will be able to give an accurate assessment to what the horse is worth. We encourage partners to obtain  market appraisal from our bloodstock agent prior to offering any share for sale.
