Testimonials
“I have known Mr Adrian Allan of Elite Thoroughbreds since January 2008, when he made contact with me to seek my input on the selection of yearlings and to secure my training services. During this time I have found him to operate in an extremely professional manner in relation to our dealings, and believe he will be an asset to race syndications”

“God did I do my research! Countless phone calls, emails and visits to farms, stables and facilities looking for my first horse as it was something I have wanted to do for years. I swore my last call would be to the next person which happened to be Elite Thoroughbreds. On arriving at Bimbadeen for the inspection, I was warmly welcomed by Adrian. Once I decided to purchase the colt we were inspecting, I naturally got a little carried away and put my hand up for the remaining 20%. To my surprise, Adrian from Elite was quick to ‘put the brakes on’ and explain both sides of ownership and also the fact that there is no such thing as a perfect horse. The other syndicators I enquired with were your ‘typical salesman’ and really did nothing to help their case as they all seemed to have a horse that is ‘perfect’ (which I have learnt is almost impossible). Adrian from Elite on the other hand, did not pressure me and made sure that I was comfortable purchasing such a significant share for my first time. That straight forward, honest approach sealed the deal, and I have now purchased 50% between two outstanding horses and I plan to keep going (I am currently looking for my third job to help support this new found habit). It was rather refreshing to come across someone so open and honest and I will simply not go anywhere else. The personal service that Elite Thoroughbreds provides makes you feel like you are not just another number on the books... and that is what I appreciate most! Now I am looking forward to celebrating in the winner’s circle and by the looks of things that is not too far away as we seem to have a smart colt on our hands!”

“Adrian has been easy to deal with and the utmost professional. I have been interested in owning racehorses for a long time and I rang several syndication services in looking to purchase a share in a racehorse. It has been an absolute delight so far to be dealing with a business that looks after its owners. The updates come on a weekly basis and shorter if the need arises. I have been so happy with the service so far that I now own a share in two racehorses (Belle De Heart and the Commands x Find The Cash filly) and I have recently upped my stake in the second horse. When I call Adrian for what I think will be a quick phone call, he is very thorough and detailed in letting me know everything I should before I make a decision. His strengths are his attention to detail, his professionalism in dealing with owners and his management of horses. I am now taking a breather and am going to enjoy racing these two horses before I buy a few more shares in the future. I am really glad that I decided to give Elite a ring - they are Elite in every way!”
-Duncan Lovelock (Tamworth, NSW)
“I purchased a share in a filly now named Shady Favour with Elite and the whole process was just so easy. From the explanation of how things worked, right through to completing the finance application which was the easiest part, allowing me to own the share in the first place. I was always nervous going in being my first time, but I felt all that much better when Adrian was prepared to spend half an hour on the phone with me whenever I had a question. It won’t be my last time as we are already enjoying success with our city class 2 year old, and I certainly will not be going elsewhere. I appreciate the fact that Adrian is both straight forward and realistic, and aligned with a trainer that operates in the same manner. As for the communication, A1 is the best way to describe it!”
-Rod Henrequez (Sydney, NSW)
“About time! someone that returns phone calls and does not make you feel like a 'mug' for calling and asking questions. Adrian has set the bar very high as far as service levels go. Without a doubt, Elite Thoroughbreds is as good as it gets when it comes to racehorse syndications and communication. I regard Adrian as a mate these days and someone that I can trust. Thank you for making me feel like i'm not just another number. I look forward to buying many more with Elite in the future”
-Vic Denina (Sydney, NSW)
“Whilst the enjoyment for racehorse ownership culminates on race day and hopefully time in the winners lounge, you can also appreciate the experience by monitoring the horse's progress leading up to the race. I have had an active involvement in race horse ownership now for more than 10 years and I could not be happier with the ongoing support and the degree of information provided by Adrian from Elite Thoroughbreds on the progress of my horses. Adrian clearly understands what is needed to exceed the expectations of owners in these area's, in an industry that generally does not get it right”
-Rod Booker (Sydney, NSW)
“As a pedigree analyst I am always on the lookout for quality yearlings, both physically and more importantly pedigree wise so it was an easy decision to become a part owner in this wonderfully bred filly now called Catazoom. What I didn’t expect from Elite Thoroughbreds and Mr Adrian Allan was the unbelievable attention to detail in the owner updates I receive on a weekly basis. I’ve never needed to contact Adrian over any issue regarding our filly because we are kept up to date with anything and everything to do with her progress, however small it may seem. It’s been thoroughly enjoyable so far and I look forward to enjoying success with the Elite Thoroughbreds team in the near future”
-John Batsakis (Genetic Influence - Pedigree Analyst)
“I currently own shares in two horses with Elite Thoroughbreds and I could not speak highly enough of Adrian and his operation. The first time I called Adrian to enquire about shares we spoke for 45 minutes and he answered any questions I threw at him, where as other syndicators gave me 5 minutes. The communication is second to none and as such was beyond my expectations. Adrian gives owners every possible chance when it comes to selecting a racehorse, and tries to make it as affordable as possible. I have enjoyed every minute of the ownership experience thus far, and I look forward to owning plenty more. You are a champion Adrian! I now know why your experienced owners consider your operation to be number one! Keep doing what you do best!”
-Jason Cameron (Sydney, NSW)
“We currently have 2 horses in which we have purchased through Elite Thoroughbreds. We cannot speak highly enough of Elite Thoroughbreds and Adrian Allan. The service that Elite Thoroughbreds have offered us is second to none, from their in-depth updates to the way they make sure the horses are looked after. We have had horses through other companies/syndicators, and in our experience nothing compares to the knowledge and customer service of Elite Thoroughbreds. We would recommend Elite Thoroughbreds to anyone. When it comes to our races horses we wouldn’t trust anyone else”
-Trifections Syndicate (Jarred Spurr, Scott Taylor & Glenn Hommel)
“Being a first time owner, Elite have shown professionalism and direction, guiding me along the way and involving me in every detail of my horses preparation with explanations on everything I have asked. I certainly know a lot more now than I did before. Love it!. The regular updates on his progress are an important part of ensuring the owners remain as informed as possible and this is an area Adrian has managed extremely well. Being based in Brisbane, the updates, videos and photos of Exceeded are forwarded to me on a weekly basis, with no prompting required. Exceeded is coming up to his first start and as an owner I know that he will be treated in the best possible way and will be given every chance to compete. I recommend to anyone out there interested in horse syndication and ownership to give Elite Thoroughbreds a go... I did!”
-Wayne Vohland (Brisbane, QLD)
“Mr Adrian Allan has had several of his ‘Elite Thoroughbreds’ horses with us and has proven himself as a very good client, he has at all times kept his accounts to date. While his horses are in our care, Mr Allan has kept in contact and closely followed the progress of his horses. We break in and educate Elite Thoroughbreds yearlings, and Adrian certainly has a good eye for a nice type of horse. I have no hesitation in endorsing Adrian Allan from Elite Thoroughbreds as a valued client”
-Niki Chapman & Shane Rose (Bimbadeen Park, Werombi)
“Without doubt I rate Elite Thoroughbreds the top of the tree when it comes to racehorse syndication! The communication between yourself and us (the owners) is excellent, from the trackwork videos, weekly and sometimes more often email updates, photos of our horses spelling etc. Your selection of excellent horsemen such as Gary Portelli our trainer right down to the pre training and spelling facilities are first class. There is no doubt myself and my syndicate will be buying again from Elite Thoroughbreds in the future. I have horses with other syndicators and rate Elite Thoroughbreds a class above the others. Keep up the good work!”
-Cindy Kate Racing Syndicate (Phil Giles)
“Adrian has been a most professional and easy to get on with chap. He has handled the progress of our young two year old very well thus far and we have been pleased to receive weekly updates as to his progress along with a few pictures. Elite thoroghbreds are a very professional and straight 'up and down' type of company to deal with”
-Dave Wilson (Parkes, NSW)
"The dream of racing a horse had always seemed a somewhat an elusive prospect for me. However since my introduction to Adrian Allan of Elite Thoroughbreds, the dream has finally become a reality. A reality which is developing into an exciting journey for me and a great group of mates. After a well informed discussion with Adrian, we initiated a syndicate consisting of 8 members, and invested into the partnership of a 2yr old filly with Elite Thoroughbreds, which has given us the opportunity to experience the sensation of racing a horse at an affordable cost. Since my involvement with Elite, I must commend Adrian on the professionalism and dedication he has displayed that of which is of the highest quality. The communication level between Adrian and us, the owners, has allowed us all to be strongly involved in the progress of our filly - Lets Hussle. The regular updates on her progress are an important part of ensuring the owners remain as informed as possible and this is an area Adrian has managed extremely well. Updates and photos of Lets Hussle are forwarded to us on a weekly basis, with no prompting from the owners required. There is no doubt, that with these strong attributes consistently applied by Adrian, Elite Thoroughbreds will continue to stamp its reputation on the racing industry as a distinct and successful thoroughbred syndicator. We are all extremely eager and excited to see Lets Hussle make it to the track in the very near future, and look forward to the continued association with Adrian and Elite Thoroughbreds. I strongly recommend any horse racing enthusiasts to consider the prospect of enjoying the thrill of racing a horse, with the well managed and ever improving organisation of Elite Thoroughbreds"
-Out Of the Gates Syndicate (Nathan Barr)
“'As a first time owner I was surprised and delighted at how easy Elite Thoroughbreds made the transition from punter to owner. Adrian Allan and the entire operation operate to the highest professional standards and provide constant updates for the owners. Not only is Adrian a professional, he's a very personable bloke and a pleasure to deal with. I'd thoroughly recommend Elite to any prospective owner. I'm hoping to be in the market for a second horse shortly and will do so through Elite”
-Brendan Rogan (Sydney, NSW)
“I have been associated with Elite Thoroughbreds as a client for the past 6 months. In this time I have found Adrian to be very professional and helpful. Updates on my horses are always on time and very informative. I have certainly enjoyed my time thus far and look forward to enjoying race track success with the Elite Thoroughbreds team. I would not consider going anywhere else!”
-Aby Tannous (Sydney, NSW)
“On behalf of Myself, Peter and Brett I would like to say that your notes and updates are excellent. As far as our horse 'Lets Hussle' is concerned, we have been informed at every stage of her progress to date. We appreciate and thank you for your help”
-Bite the Bullet Syndicate (Kerrie Stewart)
"As a syndication novice, Adrian of Elite Thoroughbreds has kept me regularly informed of our horse's progress and the running’s of the organisation. He is thoroughly professional and possesses knowledge of everything there is to know in thoroughbred racing"
-Steve Bridge (Sydney, NSW)
“All the work that you do is fantastic for us at Maddam racing syndicate. Your efficiency with the updates and letting us know how the horse (Lets Hussle) is going is outstanding. You are in contact with us at least once a week and always let us know what your next step is. 3 words that would describe Elite Thoroughbreds would be efficient, fantastic and amazing”
-Maddam Racing Syndicate (Adam Meilak)
