Empire Thoroughbreds, a new bloodstock company, has been launched by Dr. Kristian Rhein and Jonathan “Finn” Green.
The duo will offer their bloodstock services for those looking to purchase Thoroughbreds privately or at public auction.
The two men first collaborated in September 2011 when they were brought on as the veterinarian and racing manager, respectively, for eventual GI Breeders' Cup Classic winner Mucho Macho Man (Macho Uno).
“There's no better time than now to invest in Thoroughbreds,” said Green. “Kristian and I bring a unique yet complementary blend of experiences and abilities to this partnership, which I believe will distinguish us from other bloodstock agents. We look forward to accepting new clients, helping them succeed, and most importantly, having some fun!”

“Our synergy is unlike any other because our skills not only complement each other but they increase our individual abilities,” said Rhein.
Rhein, who began his career in 2002, has his own veterinary practice at Belmont Park, which he started in 2015. As an equine racetrack practitioner, he has worked with many top trainers and equine athletes, including Classic winners and Eclipse Award champions.
Green comes from a long line of horsemen and horsewomen. He began his Thoroughbred education early, as his father, Robert “Bob” Green, was the manager for famed Greentree Stud for almost three decades, and his mother, Patricia Headley-Green, grew up on a Thoroughbred farm owned by Green's grandfather, Hal Price Headley, a renowned Thoroughbred breeder and leading founder of Keeneland.
