Montefeltro Racing

Racehorses in training.
Bought with a view.
Owned in 1% shares.

Montefeltro Racing is a new operation launched in 2025.

We mostly buy horses in the sub-£30,000 bracket — not finished articles, but horses we think can be improved or campaigned a little differently.

The aim is simple: to get the best out of them, have fun along the way, and take our chances at the big meetings whenever we think we’re in with a shout.

How it works

Structure

Each horse is owned in 100 shares of 1%.

  • Nobody owns more than one share
  • All members are on identical terms

Costs

Each horse is listed with:

  • Buy-in price
  • Fixed monthly contribution
  • Syndicate end date

There are:

  • No top ups
  • No surprise bills

Communication

Owners are kept informed via WhatsApp and Telegram, with updates explaining the thinking behind race planning and ongoing decisions.

Owners Badges

We request the maximum number of owners’ badges permitted by the racecourse for each race.
Many racecourses allocate a generous number of badges to syndicates, but where demand exceeds availability, badges are allocated by ballot.

Prize Money

Prize money is paid out after jockey fees and race entry fees have been deducted.

Can anyone join?

Yes – as long as you are aged 18 or over. No previous ownership experience is required.
All members are subject to the Rules of Racing and the British Horseracing Authority.

About

Montefeltro Racing was founded in 2025 by Dan Gilbert, who sources and manages all horses purchased.

Dan has been buying racehorses since 2008, many of them through horses-in-training sales. Notable wins include Moyenne Corniche (2011 Ebor), Montefeltro (2013 Irish Cesarewitch), Nietzsche (2018 Greatwood Hurdle) and Cormier (2022 Morebattle Hurdle).
