In this edition of the OTI Gazette, we have a chat to Yulong Stud’s Chief Operating Officer, Sam Fairgray.
We look at different training facilities in Europe, assess our weekend runners, look at recent winners, assess the latest Arqana Breeze Up sale and introduce an exciting 4yo stayer with Annabel Neasham.
All that and much more to look forward to!
A CHAT WITH SAM FAIRGRAY
“We are going to continue to build our broodmare band, the aim is to get up to 800 mares and 20 stallions. To breed competitive athletes, and to ensure they are raised with the best nutrition and care. We would like to grow to be a leading international farm with a strong racing and breeding team.
EUROPEAN TRAINING FACILITIES
“Just over 12 months ago, a team from Ballarat visited Japan to observe the superb woodchip training facilities. What they saw was instrumental in the uphill straight 1200m covered track being constructed in Ballarat. More recently, Racing Victoria announced an investigative party of track managers was headed to Europe to inspect training facilities.
