After 20 years at Three Chimneys Farm, Case Clay is shifting his focus full-time to his company, Case Clay Thoroughbred Management, according to a press release from Clay Tuesday morning.
His services will continue to include bloodstock auction and private purchases, portfolio management and equine insurance.
“I am grateful to the Torrealba Family for allowing me to add outside clients of my own over the past several years, in addition to my role at Three Chimneys,” said Clay. “As my business and clients have grown, it feels like the right time to go out on my own and to grow my business even more. The only way to free up time to do that is to go solo, but I'm glad that I will be able to call Three Chimneys a client as I further develop this venture.”
Clay enjoyed a recent score with GI Beverly D winner Dalika, whom he purchased privately in Germany for Bal Mar Equine as a two-year-old.
“Case has been invaluable to us since we purchased Three Chimneys with regard to his connections domestically and abroad, particularly from helping us develop relationships with
owners and breeders around the world,” said Gonçalo Torrealba, Chairman of Three Chimneys. “We respect and support his decision, and we're looking forward to being a client of Case's,
especially as he helps us broaden the Japanese and Australian presence for our flagship stallion, Gun Runner.”
“Now seems like a logical time to announce this venture as I'm heading to Australia on January 3rd for the Magic Millions Sale. I'm looking forward to getting rolling,” added Clay.
Clay currently sits on the Advisory Board of Keeneland, is a Board Member of the Breeders' Cup and also serves as Chairman of KEEP.
