There is a joint obligation upon both Owner and Trainer to ensure that a Training Agreement is in place. You can find an agreement which is recommended by the ROA and NTF here which complies with Schedule 4 of Manual C in the Rules of Racing. You may use an alternative version, as long as it contains the minimum requirements outlined in the Rules.

If you have just joined the ROA you will receive a welcome pack in approximately ten days. Included in this pack is information on how to make the most of membership as well as instructions concerning the ROA Owners' car park Label, the Racecourse Badge Scheme for Owners and the ROA Owner-Sponsorship Scheme.

Yes. You do not have to own a racehorse to be a member of the ROA. If you do not currently have a horse, we hope that you will enjoy the benefits of membership available to you such as the owners' car park label, access to our social events and members' racecourse facilities and Thoroughbred Owner & Breeder magazine which is delivered monthly.

This is your PASS card. It provides identification for collecting your badges as an owner when your horse is running. The card will also be activated for the Racecourse Badge Scheme for Owners, providing you qualify for the scheme. Members who supply a photograph will be issued with a Horseracing Privilege Photocard. A Photocard is required to gain free entry for members on the Racecourse Badge Scheme for Owners.

This can be found on your Horseracing Privilege Photocard, or temporary card if you have just become a member. We would be happy to provide your membership number by phone if you have mislaid it.

This enables ROA members to recognise fellow members when racing. This is not to be confused with your Horseracing Privilege Card which is needed to gain entry when you have a horse running.

New members are sent an ROA welcome pack, which includes: your temporary Horseracing Privilege Card detailing your new membership number; full details of all the benefits including the Racecourse Badge Scheme for Owners ; Important information relating to ownership and details of upcoming events.
