Horse Racing will appeal to anyone that has a love of horses and a spirit of adventure; and the most satisfying way to take part in the action is to follow the fortunes of your very own race horse.
Buying a racehorse needn't be as expensive as you would expect. At Jo Foster Racing, we cater for all pockets with our extensive range of partnerships, racing syndicates, racing clubs and leasing of race horses and point to point horses, all based at our beautiful 300 acre farm in Ilkley, Yorkshire, where many winners have been trained in the last 12 years including the top Yorkshire horse 2 years running and the top Northern horse. If you've always fancied owning a race horse or being involved in owning a horse, but were unsure how to go about it, read on and please contact us for a chat.

LIVE THE DREAM....
Please remember that for jockeys the sport is shortlived and extremely hazardous. One in five rides ends in a fall and most jump jockeys will retire in their 30's due to injury, just this year one time Yorkshire lads Padge Whelan and Dominic Elsworth are both stood down with serious concussion, and at some point most of us may need the services of the Air Ambulance. They are not funded by the government but rely on donations so please think of them next time you are watching the racing...to donate please visit the website...
