About Us

SHOOTING STAR'S SUCCESS RELIES ON EXPERIENCE AND PROVEN THOROUGHBRED EXPERTISE

The idea to form Shooting Star Thoroughbreds came together over a casual lunch conversation with family and friends at a horse sale. It was immediately obvious what a perfect fit starting a thoroughbred syndicate would be for Mary Lightner, who comes from a family of lifelong horse people. She made the decision to move forward that day and hasn't looked back. 


Mary, who is training horses in Florida, Kentucky and Toronto, is going to step away from that role and manage the syndicate. Mike Lightner and Raymie Lightner, both top respected bloodstock agents who select horses for the best trainers in the country, will be instrumental in choosing the horses for the syndicate. Lisa Goodin, a thoroughbred owner and horse enthusiast, will help maintain the day to day operations.


Partnering with Shooting Star Thoroughbreds will partner you with one of the most competitive teams in the business.

THOROUGHBRED PARTICIPATION IS AFFORDABLE

Many racing enthusiasts only watch the races from their television or the grandstand, thinking Thoroughbred participation is too expensive or they don't have the experience to get involved. Investing with Shooting Star lets you move from spectator to owner by purchasing a fractional interest in a thoroughbred package of horses. We take care of all of the management responsibilities while you enjoy watching your horse run. 


Not only do you have the THRILL of being in the game, you have a chance to earn a RETURN on your INVESTMENT. 

HOW YOU CAN PARTICIPATE

Shooting Star Thoroughbreds would like to invite you to participate in one or more of our thoroughbred syndicates. Partnering with us affords you access to the best bloodstock agents, trainers, vets and other service providers in the business.

2022-23 Racing syndicates

RACING IS EXCITING

For a ONE TIME INVESTMENT, YOU can OWN a 1% fractional interest in THREE Thoroughbreds in our Racing Syndicate. 


For our  2022-23 racing syndicate, we've selected 3 yearlings with plans of racing through the end of June of their three year old year. Your $3,000 investment includes the purchase of the yearlings, training, vet, blacksmith, vanning and other maintenance expenses of the horses through the end of June of their three year old year.


The syndicate will begin January 1, 2022 and end June 30, 2023

Our 2021 racing Stars

ROCK ALONG

ROCK ALONG was our first 2021 TWO YO winner! She won a MSW race with Florent Geroux aboard at Churchill Downs.

NOBLE DREAMER

Finishing 2nd at Gulfstream Park MSW after chasing the pace in her first start, NOBLE DREAMER won MSW by daylight (7 1/4 lengths) in her second start with Edgard Zayas aboard. She ran 4th in the first leg of the Florida Sire Stakes on July 31. We look for her to be back to her winning ways in a couple of months.

CRYPTIC CREED

After figuring out he didn't want to sprint after his first start on the grass at Colonial Downs, Cryptic Creed broke his maiden next out at Gulfstream Park going one mile seventy on the tapeta by 3 1/2 lengths.

OUR 2020 RACING STARS 2

UBIQUITOUS

Ubi got his first start at Gulfstream Park, finishing 4th to eventual KY Derby starter Soup and Sandwich. He ran back at Saratoga, finishing a good 2nd in a monster MSW race. He broke his maiden in a MSW at Gulfstream Park.

TO A T

2 time winner. After discovering that she didn't like the turf in her first race, 

To A T won her second start at Gulfstream Park West by 3/4 lengths. Since, she has run 8 times, two firsts, two seconds and two thirds.

2019 FLORIDA 2 yr old champion ~ CHANCE IT

Winner's Circle With Our Happy Partners

Chance It, trained by Saffie Joseph, Jr., wins the $400,000 In Reality Stakes at Gulfstream Park. 

He has 8 Starts with 4 Wins (3 STAKES) and 3 Seconds.

Maiden Win

Chance It broke his Maiden in his second start by 9 1/4 lengths in MSW company at Gulfstream Park garnering a nation leading 91 Beyer Speed Figure

The Mucho Macho Man Stakes

Chance It got his fourth win and third stakes win in The Mucho Macho Man Stakes at Gulfstream Park beating a very talented As Seen On TV in a gutsy, hard fought effort.
