THE founder of a showjumping syndicate that hopes to provide financial return as well as introducing more people to the sport says its basic aim is to keep good horses for British riders.
Sarah Peacocke has set up a company to buy Cornets Pleasure WW (Gibbs), bred by Gerda Weston of Weston Warmbloods. The four-year-old stallion is by Cornet Obolensky and his dam is a full sister to Scott Brash’s ride Hello Forever.
The company is offering 150 ownership shares, at £1,000 each, with the prospect of return on the cost from Gibbs’ stud fees. Two-thirds have already been sold.
“Two things are unique about this; I think it’s the first time a young showjumping horse has been syndicated this way,” Ms Peacocke told H&H.
“It’s a one-off payment for the shareholders, they don’t have to pay for upkeep or anything, and because he’s a stallion, there should be good stud fees coming in every year.

I’ve hunted all my life. Growing up, I hunted with the Cotswold and VWH and I’m lucky to have been out with lots of packs, from the Teme Valley in Wales where I learnt the name of almost every hound, to days out with the Beaufort with a field of 200-plus. My greatest moments have been following my best friends over Ledbury hedges. Eventually, I focused on eventing – I did juniors and under-21s. Then I got a four-year-old, Bertie, and took him up to what would be four-star today.
