Leading bloodstock agent James Harron has been named as a consultant to Managing Director and the rest of his team at Inglis, it was announced Tuesday. Harron will be sitting in over the course of the next four days to pore over the 3500 entries to the company's 2016 yearling sales and will accompany members of the bloodstock team as they inspect each and every horse across the nation nominated to the Inglis Select Yearling Sales Series.
“We are delighted to engage someone of the calibre of James Harron to our team as we embark on the selection process for next year's yearling sales,” commented Webster. “James is one of Australia's leading bloodstock agents and has an outstanding knowledge of what buyers are looking for in the Australian Yearling Sale ring.”
Added Harron, “I am greatly looking forward to viewing the 2016 crop of yearlings with Inglis, and to assisting the team in servicing their clients as we hit the road for inspections,” explains James. “When the time comes to be back in buying mode for JHB clients at the 2016 sales series it will be very much business as usual, aiming to source and secure the future stars.”
Perenially a top buyer of horses at all major Australian sales, Harron has been involved in the purchase of such high-profile Inglis graduates as Wandjina (Aus) (Snitzel {Aus}, A$1 million, 2012 Easter); and Foxwedge (Aus) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}), A$925,000, 2010 Easter).
