The role of the modern bloodstock agent within the racing and breeding industry is extremely important, and perhaps even more so when the first time investor is involved.
British based agents have developed an international reputation for first class service founded on integrity, expertise and professionalism. A thorough knowledge of the bloodstock market, on both an international and domestic scale, means that they are ideally qualified to offer the best possible advice on the purchase and management of racing and breeding stock and associated services.
Services offered by leading bloodstock agencies include:
- The purchase and sale of thoroughbreds of all ages both privately and at
public auction
- Representing clients at all major bloodstock sales
- The management of bloodstock affairs, both racing and breeding
- Providing valuations for prospective purchasers, insurance purposes, annual accounts etc.
- Arranging export, transportation and insurance
- Advising on stallion selection for broodmares and the purchase of breeding rights
An agent will charge a figure, often around 5% of the purchase price of the thoroughbred, for their services.
The Federation of Bloodstock Agents (GB) Ltd represents over 30 bloodstock agencies in Britain and is committed to ensuring that high standards of business practice are maintained. Please click here to visit their website.
