Delbridge Racing has entered into a partnership with KniGGhts Thoroughbred Training and Management Services to undertake our racing syndicate billing, account management and credit management activities. Key features of the new services will be:
- An invoice for each horse you own/lease will be provided each month.
- Where an owner/lessee has more than one horse a statement will be provided totalling all transactions between you and your syndicate account(s)for all horses you own/lease
- You will see on a monthly basis the balance of your account and for owners with more than one horse the overall status of your total account.
- Prizemoney distribution can occur as received from Racing Victoria, if required by you, rather than awaiting until the completion of the horses campaign.
- If you utilise credit payment facilities you will receive an invoice to pre-authorise the credit card transaction
- KniGGhts will utilise one bank account for all payments so if you have a number of horses you will pay into one account and the amount paid will be allocated to your individual syndicate accounts for you.
- Full implementation of the now standard two tiered set fee structure with a lower set fee when your horse is spelling than the set fee for when your horse is in work.
- As usual additional charges will be billed two months in arrears but KniGGhts will work with our trainers to determine if we can reduce that lag time.
- KniGGhts will offer four payment methods – internet, cheque credit card and BPay.
- KniGGhts will ensure your records and details are secure.
The partnership with KniGGhts will also allow us to improve our off-the–track services and we are extremely pleased to welcome KniGGhts to our team and look forward to working in partnership with KniGGhts to provide the best service we can for you, our owners
