equine auction industry, was named to the newly created position of Vice President of Sales in January 2011.

Robertson, who joined Keeneland follow-ing 35 years at Fasig-Tipton, oversees and di-rects all functions of the Keeneland sales.

In addition to his extensive work in the Thoroughbred industry, Robertson also has

been active in the Central Kentucky community for many years. He has served as the Chairman of the Kentucky Horse Park Com-mission, is a former director and past president of the Thorough-bred Club of America and is a past member of the Sayre School and The Lexington School boards of trustees.

He continues to serve as President/Auctioneer for Swinebroad-Denton, Inc., a full-service real estate auction company in Lex-ington.

Tipton Appraisals and Director of Sales Administration prior to joining Keeneland in 1996 as Assistant Director of Sales to Rogers Beasley.

Russell represents Keeneland on the Sales Integrity Task Force, International Catalogue Standards Commit-tee (NA) (ICSC) and the Society of International Thor-oughbred Auctioneers (SITA), having served as the organization’s chairman in 2003 and 2004.

Keeneland as a bid spotter and later chief announcer for sev-eral years following the departure of Tom Hammond.

Promoted to auctioneer in the mid ‘80s, he succeeded the late Tom Caldwell in 2001 as senior auctioneer.

He honed his inspection and sales recruiting skills as National Field Rep-resentative for Barretts’ Equine Ltd. (1996 – 2009) and with the Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society (2007- 2009). He also worked for Cromwell Bloodstock from 1990 – 1995.

Denali Stud Location: Paris, KentuckyOwners: Craig and Holly BandoroffWebsite: www.denalistud.com

Background: Craig and Holly Bandoroff’s 570-acre Denali Stud near Paris, Kentucky, is one of the Thor-oughbred industry’s leading bloodstock consignors.

Craig Bandoroff was a jockey in New Jersey in the early 1970s until a spill at Gar-den State Park in 1974 left him without the use of his right arm, forcing him to explore other career paths within the industry. The Bandoroffs each gained experience work-ing in various bloodstock and sales capaci-ties, and in 1990 they opened Denali Stud. “Denali” is derived from the name given by the Eskimos to Mt. McKinley and means “the great one.”

In the late 1990s, Bob Lewis and his wife, Beverly, sent their champion race-mare Serena’s Song to Denali when she was retired. Denali has sold several of Serena Song’s offspring, including Group 1 winner Sophisticat, by Storm Cat, for $3.4 million at the 2000 Keeneland July Selected Yearling Sale; Grade 2 winner Harlington, by Unbridled, for $2.8 million at the 2003 September Sale; and Colourful Score, a colt by Storm Cat, for $3.5 million, at the 2005 September Sale.

Denali sold champion Uncle Mo for $160,000 as a weanling at the 2008 Novem-ber Sale

Greathouse helps run his family’s Glen-crest Farm near Midway, Kentucky. Glen-crest has developed a number of significant

stallions, among them Clever Trick and Wa-vering Monarch. Such outstanding horses as Grade 1 winners Panty Raid, Honey Ryder and Devil May Care have carried the Glencrest Farm colors.

A native of Texas, Jones developed Walmac Farm into an in-ternational stallion station with such leading sires as Nureyev, Miswaki and Alleged. In 2005, he sold Walmac to his son, John T.L. Jones III, and Robert Trussell and remains as Director Emeritus.

Kenny honed his bloodstock skills in Canada and California before moving to Kentucky in 1993. He purchased future Broodmare of the Year In Neon for John Franks and bought the dams of champions Chilukki and Phantom Light prior to their stakes-producing success.

Farish bought his first Thoroughbred at the 1963 September Sale. Since then, he has campaigned more than 155 stakes winners and bred more than 280 stakes winners, in-cluding Horses of the Year Mineshaft (2003) and A.P. Indy (1992).

Mill Ridge SalesLocation: LexingtonManaging Partner: Headley BellWebsite: www.millridgefarm.com

Background: Mill Ridge Sales is a divi-sion of Dr. John and Alice Chandler’s Mill Ridge Farm near Lex-ington. In April 2008, Alice Chandler’s son Headley Bell took over day-to-day operations of Mill Ridge.

Bell founded Nicoma Bloodstock in 1979. The agency is named after Nicoma, one of the first mares Alice Chandler purchased after she created Mill Ridge Farm from 286 acres she inher-ited upon her father’s death in 1962. (Her father, Hal Price Headley, was co-founder and inaugural president of Keeneland.) Nicoma produced five stakes winners, and her sale enabled Chandler to develop Mill Ridge into a top breeding and sales opera-tion.

Mill Ridge has bred or raised such top-flight horses as 1968 Epsom Derby (G1) winner Sir Ivor, 2001 Horse of the Year Point Given; 2008 Toyota Blue Grass (G1) winner Monba; 2005 Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Giacomo; and 2004 champion filly Sweet Catomine.

In 2009, Chandler received the Eclipse Award of Merit for a lifetime of outstanding achievement in Thoroughbred racing.

Paramount Sales LLCLocation: LexingtonOwners: Pat Costello and Gabriel DuignanWebsite: paramountsales.net

Background: Para-mount Sales LLC is owned by Pat Costello and Gabriel Duignan, who founded the operation in 2001. Costello serves as Paramount’s Managing Officer.

A native of Kilkenny County, Ireland, Costello moved to Central Ken-tucky in the early 1980s, first developing and managing and Crescent Hill Farm.

From there he opened his own Drumkenny Farm, a full-service boarding operation that caters to clients such as Sam-Son Farm of Canada.

Taylor Made Sales Agency

Location: Nicholasville, KentuckyOwners: Duncan, Ben, Frank and Mark TaylorWebsite: taylormadefarm.com

Background: Taylor Made was founded as a boarding operation in 1976 by Duncan Taylor, the eldest son of noted horseman Joe Taylor, who was 19 years old at the time. Joe Taylor, an acknowledged author-ity on Thoroughbred breeding, developed John Gaines’ Gainesway Farm into a lead-ing stallion farm during his 40-year manage-ment.

Taylor Made quickly evolved into a full-service breeding and sales opera-tion, currently standing such stallions as Unbridled’s Song and Forestry. Today the 1,600-acre farm near Nicholasville, Ken-tucky, is owned and operated by the Taylor brothers – Duncan (president), Ben (stallion operations), Frank (boarding operations), and Mark (public sales).

Represented by its first Keeneland consignment in 1978, Taylor Made has sold more than $1 billion in Thoroughbreds. Fu-ture champions sold at the September Sale are Anees, Farda Amiga and Ashado.

The amount is the seventh-highest price ever paid for a horse at any Keeneland sale.

Taylor Made has ranked as the Novem-ber Sale’s leading consignor 16 times since 1990.

Background: Coolmore’s vast operation is headquartered in Fethard, County Tip-perary, and also has farms in Kentucky at Ashford Stud near Versailles and in Australia at Hunter Valley in New South Wales. John Magnier, a longtime patron of the Keene-land sales, is managing partner of Cool-more. Demi O’Byrne is a veterinarian who buys horses on behalf of Coolmore.

Magnier, whose family was promi-nently associated with jumpers in Ireland,

helped establish Coolmore as one of the world’s leading stallion operations. In 1975, legendary trainer Vincent O’Brien tapped Magnier to manage Coolmore for O’Brien and his partner, Robert Sangster. Their association resulted in Coolmore’s domina-tion of the European classics during the late 1970s and 1980s.

Today, Coolmore Ireland stands such leading stallions as Galileo (IRE) and Dane-hill Dancer, while Giant’s Causeway, Henry-thenavigator, Tale of the Cat and Lookin At Lucky, among others, stand at Ashford.

at Coolmore. A resident of Monaco, Tabor founded the Prince Arthur betting shop chain, which he developed from two betting shops into a chain of 113 shops. In 1995 he sold the Prince Arthur chain to Coral, one of Great Britain’s largest betting shop operators.

Derrick Smith, who lives primarily in Barbados, made his fortune in property and currency trading.

Either individually or in various partner-ships, the Magniers, Tabor and Smith have been represented by numerous Group or Grade 1 winners and champions in Europe and the United States. This year, the part-nership won the 2012 Epsom Derby (G1), Irish Derby (G1) and 2,000 Guineas with the champion Camelot, a son of leading Coolmore sire Montjeu (IRE), who died in March 2012. Other recent successes for the Coolmore team include wins in the 2011 Epsom Derby (G1) with Pour Moi; Prix du Jockey-Club (G1) and Irish 2,000 Guineas (G1) with Roderic O’Connor (IRE); Irish 1,000 Guineas (G1) with Misty for Me (IRE); and 2010 Irish Derby (G1) and 2011 Arling-ton Million (G1) with Cape Blanco (IRE).

O’Byrne purchased future champion Rags to Riches on behalf of Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith for $1.9 million at Keeneland’s 2005 September Yearling Sale. Rags to Riches won the 2007 Kentucky Oaks (G1) and became only the third filly in history to win the Belmont (G1).

Godolphin/Darley Stud Management Company Ltd.

Owner: Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al MaktoumBloodstock advisor: John FergusonHeadquarters: Dalham Hall Stud, New-marketWebsite: www.darleyamerica.com

Background: Sheikh Mohammed, the Ruler of Dubai and Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emir-ates, is the driv-ing force behind Godolphin, whose royal blue silks are a

signature of the Maktoum family’s interna-tional racing entity.

Named in honor of the Godolphin Ara-bian, one of the three founding stallions of the modern Thoroughbred, Godolphin is the Maktoum family’s private stable. Since 1992, Godolphin has won nearly 700 stakes

races around the world. Among its many stakes winners are Blue Bunting, Street Cry (IRE), Pebbles, Oh So Sharp, Indian Skimmer, Old Vic, Singspiel, Balanchine, Lammtarra, Fantastic Light, Pennekamp, Cape Cross, Kayf Tara, Sakhee, and Sheikh Mohammed’s personal favorite, Dubai Mil-lennium.

Godolphin is headquartered at Al Quoz Stables and Godolphin Marmoom Stables in Dubai, where the horses winter until they are sent to Godolphin Stables or Moulton Paddocks in Newmarket for the summer and their international campaigns.

Sheikh Mohammed also owns Darley Stud Management Company Ltd, which is headquartered at Dalham Hall Stud, also near Newmarket. In Kentucky, Darley’s operation is based at Darley at Jonabell, the former Jonabell Farm acquired from the family of founder John A. Bell in 2001.

Katsumi YoshidaFarm: Northern FarmLocation: Hokkaido, Japan

Background: Katsumi Yoshida is the founder and owner of Northern Farm, located on the northern island of Hokkaido in Japan. Northern Farm is both a horse breeding and training facility with about 1,300 horses that include broodmares, stal-lions and racing stock.

At the 2009 Keeneland January Horses of All Ages Sale, Yoshida purchased mul-tiple Grade 1 winner Island Fashion for $950,000. Later that year, he purchased champion Azeri for $2.25 million at the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale.

At the races, Northern Farm-bred horses have had many successes, breeding cham-pion older mare Admire Groove, twice

winner of the Queen Elizabeth II Com-memorative Cup in Japan. Yoshida’s horses Delta Blues and Pop Rock finished 1-2 in the 2006 Melbourne Cup (G1).

Northern Farm bred such 2010 Group 1 stakes winners Vermillion (Kawasaki Kinen), Apapane (Japan Oaks and 1,000 Guineas) and Rose Kingdom (Japan Cup).

Shadai FarmLocation: Hokkaido, JapanPrincipal: Teruya “Terry” Yoshida

Background: The Yoshida family’s Shadai Farm is one of the world’s most famous Thoroughbred operations. Shadai Stallion Station, home of such leading stallions as the late Northern Taste and Sunday Silence, is located on the island of Hokkaido in Japan.

Principal Teruya “Terry” Yoshida’s grandfather, Zenuske Yoshida, was one of the first Japanese to import Thoroughbreds from the United States on a major scale. He died in 1946, leaving the family business to his son Zenya Yoshida (Terry’s father) and his two brothers. Zenya Yoshida founded Shadai in 1955.

Zenya Yoshida had formerly owned a stud farm in the Tokyo region that the Japanese government purchased in 1958 as part of the land for Narita International Airport. Yoshida used the money to buy land on Hokkaido, the northern island that is now Japan’s principal center of Thor-oughbred breeding, and developed Shadai Farm there.

When Teruya Yoshida graduated in economics from Keoi University in 1969, his father sent him to Kentucky to man-age Fontainebleau Farm, then the Ameri-can branch of Shadai. He spent five years at Fontainebleau, during which time he spent $100,000 for Northern Taste, a son of Northern Dancer who won the 1974 Prix de la Foret at Longchamp and became the champion stallion in Japan for 11 consecu-tive years.

Sunday Silence, winner of the 1989 Kentucky Derby (G1), Preakness (G1) and Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1) entered stud at Shadai in 1991 and became a perennial lead-ing sire. He died in 2002 at the age of 16.

Shadai Stallion Station currently stands about 27 stallions. They include 2002 Ken-tucky Derby (G1) winner War Emblem and champion Deep Impact.

Shadai purchased Lucky One, carrying a full sibling to champion Blind Luck, for $1.85 million at the 2010 November Sale.
