Racehorse Ownership. Raven’s Corner @ Meydan

Jebel Ali, UAE

Who we are. Touch Gold Racing provides the opportunity for individuals and small groups to get involved in racehorse ownership in the UAE and UK. We began competing in 2015 with just one horse in training and have just finished the 2017/18 season with a string of 6 horses. Our current UAE race record of 7 wins from 49 starts gives us a solid 14% strike rate, with our horses finishing ITM (‘In the money’) at a 60% rate. We will not only strive to maintain these stats, but hope to surpass them in coming seasons.

Touch Gold Racing was set up by Mike Kaye in 2014. Mike is a former odds compiler and has been involved with racing for over 20 years. He uses both data driven and visual approaches to maximise the earning potential of the horses under management. Thanks to unparalleled prize money and hugely favourable stabling costs, Mike believes that the UAE is the most exiting country in the world to be involved in racehorse ownership.

Zabeel Stables, UAE

How we work. Our focus is based on the racing in the UAE, and in particular, the racing at Meydan. Our horses are stabled with leading UAE trainer Satish Seemar at the beautiful Zabeel Stables in downtown Dubai. We work closely with them, attending early morning training each week, where we use electronic monitoring devices to track heart rate, speed, acceleration, stride length and recovery, so we can better evaluate our horses’ form throughout the season. We also work closely with the trainers and jockeys when it comes to race reading and race planning, ensuring we leave no stone unturned on race days. It is the combined experience, knowledge and team work which drives our winning formula. www.touchgoldracing.com

Last year we won a Carnival race with our very first Carnival runner, Fanciful Angel, who shipped in from the UK under trainer Marco Botti and we surpassed this the following season, with Raven’s Corner not only picking up a Carnival win, but being invited to run on World Cup night in the Godolphin Mile where he ran a creditable 8th from the worst draw of all in 14. Our biggest day to date came in August 2017 we achieved the unfeasible, Fanciful Angel running 2nd in the Arlington Million at odds of 73/1, picking up $190k. It was the culmination of 6 months of planning and resulted in a very lucrative sale for the syndicate.
