Excitement is in the air for horse racing enthusiasts in Toronto, as the new partnership between MyRacehorse and Woodbine Racetrack makes it easier for fans to experience owning a racehorse. Imagine being part of the thrill, watching your own horse compete, without the hefty price tag that usually comes with traditional ownership.

A New Era of Horse Racing Ownership

MyRacehorse offers a unique opportunity for fans to invest in Thoroughbred racehorses for as little as $100. This innovative digital platform allows individuals to buy a share, bringing horse racing into reach for many who may have thought it was unattainable.

Gone are the days when owning a racehorse was reserved for the elite. With MyRacehorse, you can enjoy the thrill of the sport in a more communal setting, interacting with fellow horse owners and rooting for your favorite contestant in a personal way.

Meet Northern Shores: The Star of the Show

As part of its launch in Canada, MyRacehorse introduces Northern Shores, a promising Canadian-bred filly trained by the respected Josie Carroll, a member of the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame. Northern Shores has a noteworthy lineage, being a half-sister to Curlin’s Voyage, a distinguished two-time Canadian champion who triumphed in the Woodbine Oaks.

Owners will have the joy of following Northern Shores under the guidance of Carroll, gaining insight into her training and early development.

Understanding the Ownership Experience

So how does this ownership work? By investing around $100 in MyRacehorse, you can purchase a share with no hidden costs or ongoing fees, providing a risk-friendly entry into the sport. However, it’s important to read through the legal and offering documents before making any financial commitments.

Owners enjoy a wealth of information about their horse’s journey, receiving updates on training and performances. This engagement extends beyond the racetrack; owners can also attend exclusive events and connect with one another, creating a vibrant community centered around a joint passion.

This model is not equivalent to sole ownership but allows you to partake in the excitement of the racing world, making it accessible for more fans.

Bringing Fans Closer to the Sport

Australians have embraced this ownership model, with 1 in 191 individuals having a share in a racehorse. In the U.K., syndicate ownership grew by 57% from 2019 to 2023, showcasing a global trend of increasing accessibility to horse racing.

MyRacehorse has already welcomed over 100,000 owners worldwide, sharing stories of successful racehorses like Kentucky Derby champion Authentic and Preakness Stakes winner Seize the Grey. These stories exemplify how enjoyable and personal the experience of ownership can be, as fans witness the journey of their horses up close.

Are you ready to follow the adventure of Northern Shores? Whether you choose to support this filly or another horse, watching a competitor you’ve invested in from the grandstand at Woodbine is an unparalleled thrill.
