Fav to hire

Spotlight I have bought and sold thoroughbreds at public auction for 15 years, signing for 412 lots across Goffs, Tattersalls and Arqana. My purchases have won 3 Group races and returned a median resale margin of 38% on pinhooks. I still walk every yearling myself, twice, in the rain if necessary.
