Become A Valued Member of the The Phoenix Syndicate Today!

 In the event world, the majority of successful horse and rider combinations at the upper levels are owned through syndication, which is a way for people who love our sport to participate as owners and share in the excitement and rewards of competition. The Phoenix Syndicate, managed by L&N Equestrian, offers you a specially structured opportunity to invest in the highest levels of eventing.

Included in the syndicate is Cash, a 16.2H, 8-year-old Chestnut Thoroughbred gelding who was sourced as 5-year-old from Benita and Lucia Strini. He won his first 1* and went on to win his first ever Intermediate horse trials! After a recent 2nd place finish at the CIC2** at Poplar Place Farm, Cash is settled in England at Mark Todd's farm and is currently gearing up for his first 3***!

Muggle is the second horse included in the syndicate who's a striking 17.3H, chestnut Dutch Warmblood gelding originally owned and started by Melissa Stubenberg. The pair have had a solid competition record together including completing the Fair Hill CCI2** and CCI3***. The pair recently was named the traveling reserve for the Brazilian Eventing Team in this year's Olympic Games! 

"We established the Phoenix Syndicate as a separate business venture with the goal of developing and selling a limited number of young event prospects—and at the same time supporting horses through  the international levels of competition. Membership in the Phoenix Syndicate allows a serious owner to invest in several horses for less than the cost of supporting one competition horse. It can also allow a breeder to sell shares in a young prospect and still maintain a  percentage ownership in that horse. Shared resources, shared risk,  and shared profits make this possible and could potentially result in a self-supporting enterprise."

Business shares are available for serious investors interested in this successful and potential self-supporting enterprise.

If an an opportunity like this appeals to you, please contact Laura VanderVliet directly at ljvv2000@yahoo.com or 717-682-8042. We're happy to invite you out to the farm to learn more information and meet the horses.
