MICHAEL KIPNESS (Founder of Wizard Stables)
Michael Kipness, also known as the Wizard, has been a professional handicapper and horse owner since the mid-eighties. The Wizard has owned several horses during this time, winning nearly 40 % of his races and hitting the board at a very strong 70 %. The reason for such success is the Wizard spots his horses in race where he feels they will be competitive. Heu2019s a master at pointing for a race and getting the job done at huge prices. His biggest score was with Lydio in an Allowance race at Keeneland in 1999 paying $57.40. Other notable Wizard scores were with Street Trust on closing day at Saratoga in 2019 paying $15.60. At the Finish won 4 races in a row at Arlington Park off the claim for the Wizard. His most recent success was with the Wizardu2019s 2-year-old Walk with Me in her career debut November 9 at Aqueduct paying a whopping $18.
After being in the racing business for over 40 years, the Wizard has made many connections. The idea of raising money to form The Wizardu2019s racing syndicate came after many years of preparation. He strongly believes the success of such an endeavor lies in the team that you assemble. The Wizard has chosen the finest trainers, the perfect farm to raise the yearlings, and the bloodstock agent to help decide what horses to purchase at various auctions, at the right price. Transparency, patience and understanding the art of handicapping, all tie into the success of a the Wizard Stables racing syndicate.
