Thoroughbred racing & breeding professional since 1986
Meet Adrian Clark
(NZ) Bloodstock Consultant
Hundreds of hours of live television, two big management positions & a good share of life experience has moulded me into the person you find today.
Doing the job right really matters to me. Working relationships need to be 'real'; that's tough to find, so I pick those I do business with carefully. You can expect my service & demeanour to be at all times thoroughly professional and I don't do hidden agendas.
Don't get me wrong though, I do like lots of laughs and balance in my life has become increasingly important.
So that's me, here's a brief snapshot of my career.
I have worked in the Racing and Breeding industry for nearly four decades. I had 15 years with Trackside Television where I presented & produced the weekly breeding show The Ford Report. I also did live TV with Trackside, TV3 & SkyNZ. I was named NZ Racing Broadcaster of the Year on three occasions. Following that I was appointed for a 3-year period as CEO of New Zealand Thoroughbred Marketing, with a brief to promote the NZ-bred horse to the world. Next was 8 years with Nearco Stud as its' Manager; taking it from a newcomer to a significant & recognised brand within the Australasian breeding industry. I selected Gr.1 winner Quintessential for the company, planned the mating of HK Champion Beauty Generation & oversaw a big bloodstock portfolio, selling yearlings up to NZ$550k at a variety of sales including Magic Millions, Inglis (Sydney & Melbourne) and Karaka. Nearco Stud was named '2019 New Zealand Breeder of the Year'.
These days I’m self-employed operating my bloodstock agency (Adrian Clark Bloodstock Consultancy Ltd) and syndication business (Challenge Racehorse Syndications Ltd).
I offer my skills locally & internationally - this includes management of breeding stock investment portfolios. I also select and manage racing stock. I am a registered Bloodstock Valuer & Authorised Bloodstock Syndicator.
Don't hesitate to get in touch; the first step is a face-to-face to talk through your ambitions in thoroughbred ownership.
