Owners Group Anmeldelser 

I have been involved with 2 horses now with Paul Nicholls ,
Although the horses involved have run well on occasions as owners group “owners” we are not the first to know running plans the bookies seem to know before , and as owners have no say in any matters involving the horse so it’s a bit of a miss sell in my opinion I won’t be joining again

I have had shares in Owners Group horses for nearly seven years and think it is a brilliant organisation. Although my first two horses were definitely not cut out to be racehorses, and my third purchase was retired after only three runs, things have definitely looked up since! I find Owners Group to be superbly well run, I love their policy of putting horse welfare at the top of their agenda and I appreciate that not all the horses that are bought are going to be winners. But I suggest to the complainers that the percentage of Owners Group horses that win compares favourably with most other owners, large and small. I think it is sad and insulting, if not downright libellous, to say OG is a scam. I think the opposite, and for an annual cost of less than half my husband’s golf membership, I have a share in between 8 and 10 horses and get a tremendous amount of enjoyment, whilst accepting that there are always going to be downs as well as ups.

Received a gift for Christmas, which I thought was great!! However horse isn’t ready to run this year, so no chance of getting involved in all the offerings.

Emailed multiple times and no response apart from a standard automatic response.

Absolute charlatans…

Avoid!!

Just received as a gift for Christmas. Absolutely fantastic. As one reviewer says you own a hair of the horse - brilliant bring it on. Have punted and followed horses for years and this is a different level of interest and excitement for little investment/outlay. Could not be happier

If you purchase one share you may only own a hair of the horses tail. It's embarrassing watching those people walking around in the owners group scarves etc., and going nuts if the horse wins claiming on tv to be owners. The horses are only elite racing clubs rejects.

Owners’ Group is well run, with the monthly magazine alone almost worth the price of one of their shares. Your horse will be trained by top trainers and ridden by top jockeys, something most shareholders could never dream of. You may only own a whisker of the horse but you feel like it’s yours.
You get weekly updates, chances to attend stable visits and sometimes an owner’s badge when your horse runs. You get a proportionate share of any winnings but most of all the welfare of the horse comes first with suitable vetted homes being found for all the retired horses when they are ready.
I have been a shareholder in Owners’ Group horses both flat and National Hunt for about 10 years now so I am writing this review with plenty of experience of the company.

Have been involved with Owners Group for about 6 years, during that time I've part owned 2 Cheltenham Festival winners, a Pddy Power gold cup 2 winner and over 60 more winners.
All for under a pound a day.
Great Days out as an owner

Would like more say in who should train our horses. But I’m otherwise happy with the service. If you’re buying shares to make a profit instantly, dont. This is long term and should be a hobby for you. I do this instead of gambling. I have several horses now and enjoy watching their journey.

Good value for money and lots of chances for
involement in the horses on a day to day level.
An ideal way to start with ownership for little
cost.

I get the involvement in National Hunt Racing that I want at a price that I can afford. Owners Group select good horses and good trainers and get way above average results. The communication is exceptional.

Helpful people if you phone.fantastic updates on the horses and I really look forward to all the videos and race reports and notices about my horses entered into races.I have been housebound following a serious illness and the horses my husband bought me for my birthday have given me no end of pleasure
Keep up the good work you must all work so hard.

We persist with certain trainers whose strike rate with our horses is not good enough Also we appear to be encountering to many horses who don't last very long regards racecourse appearances for various reasons may be because we have too many NH stock?
After their last runs I suggest we retire Golden Duke and Beraz and find them good homes

Always good with messages and paperwork which I think shows that they are a reputable group. I also know that the horses come 1st with this Owners Group.
Very happy to give them a 5* rating

Well run syndicate with up to date and timely information

Always had a love for horses. Having the share in one without the work even better. Farmer all my life so can appreciated the ups and downs .of the sport .

Very well run and excellent communication.

Great value for money

Just read the latest magazines (Sept and Aug) and its amazing how many "owners' " letters start with "thank you, thanks, congratulations ......." or some other praiseworthy word/s. Not many letters that offer constructive criticism or even express discontentment appear to get to print. It really isn't surprising given this group appears to try and avoid any opportunity for owners to air their views openly. I do get that a lot of people are quite happy to donate their money and maybe have more interest in the welfare of their horses above anything else but i also believe there maybe a few other owners who are slightly disappointed with how their "donations" are being utilised. I doubt i will get a response from the owners group but if they read this i challenge them to let open comments be posted on their website and video postings. For example - i have now read basically the same report on all my horses recent races - wrong distance, slowly away, used up too much energy to recover position, jockey left the horse too much to do, needs cut in the ground ........... It appears there is no learning applied and the same mistakes keep being made. If that's not the case, then at least let us ask the question openly and you can provide an answer.
Whinge over and I promise nothing but constructive questions/ comments.

I've been involved with Owners Group since 2018, and have had a great experience of owning a small part of several super race horses.
Some have been super stars, others not so. But wether winning Grade one races at Cheltenham or a Class 6 at Southwell.
Or just trying they're best, they make me feel very proud indeed!
I just enjoy the journey and I've had some memorable days at the races, watching my horses perform.
Yes of course things don't always go to plan. But these are animals not machines!
So if you think you are going to win you're fortune, this is not for you!!
The welfare of the horses always comes first to Owners Group.
I'm very happy with my involvement with Owners Group!

Absolutely superb value for money for around £1 a week to have a small share in a racehorse for a year with a top trainer.
Anyone who thinks they're going to make money from owning a racehorse is naive, but if you treat it as a bit of fun and an interesting hobby, you'll enjoy the experience and learn a lot about the challenges, patience and planning that goes into preparing racehorses for competition.
The regular updates, videos and pre-race and post-race interviews with jockeys and trainers provided by the Owners Group team are top class and help take you into the heart of the action.
Worth remembering that it costs around £25k a year to have a horse in training, not including the purchase price of the horse, as a comparison.
As a former newspaper racing editor who has had 1/20th shares in horses in the past, I really can't recommend Owners Group highly enough at a fraction of the price.

Real review...Don't bother really don't bother you get absolutely nothing out of it..They choose who goes to racing no ballot..You have no connection to owners group at all. Like sponsorship a snow leopard no chance of meeting it...throw your money away if buying a share.
