James Harron Bloodstock is proud to announce that Jim Clarke will be joining the team ahead of the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale in January.
Jim will be working over several facets of both James Harron Bloodstock and JHB Syndications. After studying Law at Queensland University of Technology Jim spent time working under Peter Snowden at Darley Osborne Park, prior to obtaining a place on the prestigious Darley Flying Start course.
Since the course Jim has spent two years working as the racing manager for Sydney trainer Bjorn Baker, as well as two years with Godolphinin the UK as part of their racing and bloodstock management team.
Of the appointment James Harron said,"I am very proud of the team of people I have assembled - each and every one has been paramount in getting us to where we are today, and I believe Jim will add to that through his own unique skill set and outstanding experience throughout the international thoroughbred industry. We feel very blessed to have the support of some amazing loyal owners and without them we would not be where we are today. In an ever-changing industry, where I believe you never stop learning, it is paramount that we continue to bring in the very best young talent to ensure that no stone is left unturned in our pursuit of excellence."
Jim said, "I am thrilled to be joining the motivated, energetic and ambitious team at James Harron Bloodstock. The company has achieved phenomenal results in a short space of time and I am looking forward to the opportunity to add to that success. I have had a fantastic time in the UK and I am extremely grateful to Godolphin for the opportunity to gain more experience abroad which will be of great benefit to working in racing and breeding in Australia, which is my great passion, and I am very excited about the future at James Harron Bloodstock."
