The following is part of a series in which we have posed the question above to a number of racing industry participants. The only rule is that you cannot choose your own boss.

TOM RYAN: Gerry Dilger
The man I most admire in the horse business today is Gerry Dilger. A renowned horseman, a top class pinhooker–associated with the likes of Nyquist in 2016, and co-breeder of the 2017 Kentucky Derby Winner, Always Dreaming. Gerry made his way to the USA over 30 years ago and has paved the way for many to follow in his footsteps. Working his way up the ladder to establish his own farm here in Kentucky with his wife and family. Dromoland has a reputation for selling top-class stock and Gerry has a reputation for honesty and integrity. A man from the west of Ireland with enormous vision and a smile for everyone.
