This one of the most bizarre moments in horse racing history. Nate Hubbard was still a rookie February 3, 1989 and got too close to my dads horse which caused him to stumble. After that it is pretty self-explandatory. Enjoy and please check out my film on the same subject.

Are you considering becoming involved in a horse racing partnership or syndicate, or are you already an active partner? If so, it is crucial to know how to get started properly in order to keep track of your partnership share and be prepared when you have to give an account of your records for yearly tax preparation or other purposes.

If you expect the IRS to view your horse racing venture as a business, you will need to be systematic and professional in your approach. To set off on the right foot, in advance of investing in a partnership, you need to establish positively just what you want to achieve as well as what the syndicate is offering. A business plan should list precisely what you are hoping for in a partnership and what you anticipate happening with your investment. A few important items you should list in your horse racing business plan are:

* Your strategy for providing the required funds, both for the original horse racing partnership investment, and then to meet the monthly bills.

* A time frame for the partnership, how long is the contract, 1 year, 4 years, etc.

* Means of obtaining the horse, where is it coming from, auction, private sale, etc.

* An estimate of anticipated winnings and also costs.

* Mark out framework within which the partnership will function, specifically, do you want a horse that will be competitive at a national level or would you be more comfortable racing locally.

* Define your expectations for insuring your investment, (i.e. liability and mortality insurance).

* Determine whether the contract includes a “get out” clause. What happens if you change your mind?

Looking beyond a business plan, it will be necessary for you to construct your business appropriately, recording income and expenditures. Some points you should consider when setting up your books are:

* Find an accountant with verifiable experience in horse racing partnerships.

* Establish a separate checking account for your share of the horse racing partnership and label it as such for example, John Smith d/b/a Partnership Name, LLC.

* Keep all bills, receipts, check stubs from winnings, etc. that relate to your horse racing partnership activities.

* Keep an appointment book and travel log to document appointments, visits to the racing stable, phone calls, any travel, all associated mileage, etc.

With proper planning, you can get started in the sport of horse racing with defined expectations and organization, which will help you choose a horse racing partnership more quickly. You will also be prepared to keep track of your equine activities in a businesslike manner, which will prepare you for tax time. Being prepared prevents worries or problems, which will allow you to really kick back and enjoy your thoroughbred ownership!
