What sparked your interest in bloodstock and sales?

My interest in bloodstock began from a young age. Growing up my dad always had a few mares and horses in training with Tommy and Fozzy Stack. My grandad [Stan Cosgrove] was also a vet and managed Moyglare Stud, so following all of these horses through the sales and their racing careers enthralled me. Although I didn’t grow up around horses it was during my summers in college where I worked at Moyglare Stud that I caught the bug. I knew that once I graduated from Agricultural Science in UCD that I wanted to do the Irish National Stud course. This course gave me a huge insight into all aspects of the industry. Upon completion of the INS course, I travelled to Australia where I worked at Arrowfield Stud for a breeding season. Since than I have spent time at Ashford Stud which was a great experience to work with high quality horses.
