Buying a racehorse at AtTheGate
1. Create an account and get verified
Free industry verification confirms you are an owner, trainer, agent, or breeder. It protects both sides of every sale and is normally reviewed within a day.
2. Do your homework on the horse
Read the Lifetime Past Performances, study the pedigree and five-cross, watch the video, and contact the seller directly with questions before you bid.
3. Bid and settle with guidance
Place a live or proxy bid. If you win, AtTheGate emails you a commission invoice with the seller's contact details and a 72-hour completion window, then asks both parties to confirm the sale.

- Do I need to be verified to bid on a racehorse?
