- Communication
Pace With Mates will endeavour to provide weekly updates on all horses with videos and messages from the trainers both on our website and direct to your phone.
We will also set up a WhatsApp group to share videos and updates of each horse. We also encourage group members to chat and post in the group and get to know each other and become pacing and trotting mates.
Pace With Mates will also work with racing clubs to have events and meetings as well as the fun of watching our horses race. Building a strong community and having fun is just as important as winning races.
Many of the horses we offer are yearlings and are yet to be named. Once the syndicates are full we will have a group vote for the naming suggestions to be submitted to the racing authorities
We want our members to have fun and be creative, but history shows champion racehorses don’t have silly names!

- Post Racing Career
Being a professional athlete is often just the first step in a career of a racehorse. Whilst many of our fillies have outstanding pedigrees and should have post-race careers as mums. Not all mares can be bred from.
1% of all money received will be held in a separate account for each horse’s retirement post racing , this includes purchase price , monthly training and all prize money.
Pace With Mares will work closely with Racing QLD to ensure the best care is given to our horses post racing. Racing Qld has given grants several horse welfare organisations to ensure the best care is given to horses post racing
