Who Are WRB Racing?
WRB Racing have been one of the leading syndicate specialists for many years, often topping the performance leagues.
For a fully inclusive monthly cost (from £99), WRB offer shares in racehorses in multiples of 5% and there are on average about 10 people in each syndicate. The owners have access to see their horse in the yard and working on the gallops whenever they want and receive an owner’s badge every time they go racing. They receive their full share of prizemoney won. The syndicates are professionally and independently managed and have been highly successful. All owners receive a friendly and personal service, both from WRB and from the trainer. WRB Racing's Pedigree
The first runner was in November 1988, and the first winner, in April 1989, was a horse called Rothko, in which Harvey Smith had a 50% share, and trained by George Moore.
Rothko went on to win the 1992 Philip Cornes Saddle of Gold Final, as an 11-y-o, when trained by Sue Smith, with Muse, Triple Witching and Young Hustler all behind. We have had runners at 59 racetracks from Perth in the North to Brighton in the South, and from Newton Abbott in the West to Yarmouth in the East. We have had entries at every racecourse in Great Britain and have had winners at all courses in Scotland.
