Meet Matthew Corban
Why I Started Inspire Racing
"I started Inspire Racing because I wanted to build the type of syndicator I'd want to own horses with. Small, transparent, highly communicative, and focused on quality over quantity. Every horse is selected as if I were buying it entirely for myself. My goal isn't to manage the biggest stable in the country—it's to give owners memorable experiences with horses capable of winning good races."
Experience Racehorse Ownership Differently
At Inspire Racing, we believe racehorse ownership should be about far more than simply owning a share in a horse. It should be about the anticipation before a race, the friendships formed along the way, travelling to great race meetings, and celebrating the moments that make this sport so addictive.
We're a boutique syndicator with one simple philosophy: buy quality horses, place them with quality trainers, and give owners an experience they're proud to be part of.
Whether you're purchasing your first 1% share or building a portfolio of racehorses, you'll be treated exactly the same.
Quality Over Quantity
We deliberately keep our team small and selective.
Every horse is purchased because we genuinely believe it has the ability to compete at a high level—not because we need another horse to sell.
Our horses are selected by Matthew Corban alongside our training partners and respected bloodstock professionals, with a focus on athleticism, pedigree, temperament and long-term racing potential.
Trainers We Trust
Our horses are trained by some of Australasia's most respected horsemen, including:
Allan Sharrock
Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson
Richard & Will Freedman
Every horse is placed where we believe it has the greatest opportunity to succeed.
Communication That Goes Beyond Expectations
Owners deserve to know what's happening with their horse.
That's why communication is one of the foundations of Inspire Racing.
You'll receive:
Regular video updates
Stable visits
Race previews and reviews
Veterinary updates
Direct trainer feedback
Behind-the-scenes content
Tips no one else has access too!
You'll never be left wondering how your horse is progressing.
Ownership That Fits You
Racehorse ownership shouldn't be reserved for a handful of people.
Shares are available from just 1%, allowing owners to experience all the excitement of ownership without the financial commitment of owning a horse outright.
Regardless of the size of your share, you'll enjoy the same ownership privileges.
Racing Across Australasia
Our ambition extends beyond New Zealand.
We campaign horses on both sides of the Tasman, giving our owners opportunities to enjoy race days at some of Australasia's premier venues while ensuring every horse is placed where it has the best chance to succeed.
More Than Owners
One of the things we're proudest of isn't measured in winners.
It's the community we've built.
Many owners who started with one horse now race multiple horses with Inspire Racing. Lifelong friendships have been formed, unforgettable trips have been shared, and every season creates new memories.
That's what Inspire Racing is really about.
Join the Journey
Whether you're completely new to racing or have owned horses for decades, we'd love to welcome you to the Inspire Racing team.
The next great horse has to start somewhere.
