Kerri Radcliffe, who led Phoenix Thoroughbreds through its first year in Europe and America last year, is no longer the organization's bloodstock and racing manager. The news was first reported by Paulick Report and confirmed to TDN on Friday by Phoenix founder and chief executive officer Amer Abdulaziz. Abdulaziz declined to comment on a reason for the split.
Radcliffe said she did not wish to comment extensively at this time, but said, “I wish them all the best for the future. I look forward to watching the horses that I bought run and have continued success.”
Phoenix, a Dubai-based investment fund, began buying horses through Radcliffe at last year's breeze-up, yearling and breeding stock sales in America and Europe. It has enjoyed early success with horses like unbeaten Grade I winner Dream Tree (Uncle Mo), the multiple graded-placed Mourinho (Super Saver), and dual winners Walk in the Sun (Street Sense) and Gronkowski (Lonhro {Aus}).
