Hello Friend

I've just recorded an 'over the shoulder' video review of a handful of handicaps from the first 3 days of last week's Royal meeting. In it I flag a few horses who caught my eye, whether some runs can be marked up and also a few form-lines to keep an eye, including horses who didn't run at Ascot, but who have bumped into those that did. 

As always with any luck there's something useful for you to take away.

In an exciting new development I, along with a trusted friend, are in the process of creating the Racing To Profit Syndicate, and this is your invite to express an interest. 

As many of you know I've been rather lucky with the small shares i've had in White Diamond Racing, firstly with Blessed To Empress and latterly with Really Super. I think they must have won 11/12 races between them, including last year's Summer Plate. Madness. 

It's been some thrill, I can't quite explain that feeling when you're track side and the horse you now care deeply for, wins. Or even runs well. And when you're enjoying that experience with new friends, who love racing - well, I'm not sure it gets too much better in this game. But it's much more than race day of course... trips to the yard, social gatherings, regular updates etc. The chance to be on the inside, as part of a special club. 

For the last year or so I've been pondering starting my own syndicate under my Racing To Profit banner - the opportunity to enjoy what I have in recent years, but even better - well, my aim is to make your ownership experience the best around and have as much fun as possible. 

I'd be delighted if some of you joined me on this journey. 

This is still in the early stages, for all that most of the BHA/ROA paperwork is now in place. 

Please don't bombard me with questions at this stage, all will be revealed to those who sign up to the list below. 

However, as I write, I just want to test the water and see how many of you 'register an interest' in the idea. 

I have set up a new email list where you can pop your name down, if any of the above sounds exciting.  

It's only an email list, there's no commitment required, but if you'd seriously consider joining the RTP Syndicate before the year is out, or you want to find out more, please do add your name. 

It will give me and my syndicate partner a firmer idea on whether many of the RTP masses have any interest or not. This will help determine what happens in the coming weeks. 

I will then communicate in more detail with the 'interest' email list, explain the plans etc. And we can go from there. 

With any luck come early September they'll be a fully fledged RTP Syndicate in place, a horse to start running, and new memories to create. We will be doing our best to make sure it's a social and racing experience like no other, at an affordable price. (for all that syndicates are never 'cheap', this will not be an 'Owners' Group' £50-80 a year model)
