RICHARD VENN - TARGETING SUCCESS

 
 

RICHARD has built up more than 20 years' experience in the horseracing industry, having nurtured a desire to work in racing from a young age.

His first major job in racing came at Sheikh Mohammed's Darley operation following work experience with former top trainer Stan Mellor and at Littleton Stud in Winchester.

He worked for Darley for 12 years before helping to establish Anthony Stroud Bloodstock Limited. That was in the summer of 1999 and Richard worked there for eight years broadening his experience and, of course, increasing his knowledge of the bloodstock industry.

Over the years Richard has sourced and purchased winners for a host of influential owners and trainers, including Ivan Allan, Kim Bailey, John Best, Henry Cecil, Jane Chapple-Hyam,

 

Peter Chapple-Hyam, David Elsworth, Nicky Henderson, Dan Hendricks (USA), Neil King, James Lambe, Nick Littmoden, Jim Moffatt, Hughie Morrison, Martin Pipe, Brendan Powell, Lucinda Russell, Michael Scudamore, Satish Seemar and Lucy Wadham.

Richard achieved particular success with United and Mudawin. United, who he sourced from Germany for Lucy Wadham, has won eight times over hurdles notably the Grade 1 Punchestown Juvenile Championship in 2005, the 2007 National Spirit Hurdle (Grade 2) and was a leading fancy for the 2009 Cheltenham Festival. Mudawin was purchased at the Doncaster Lincoln Sale in 2005 for 42,000 Guineas, and famously won the 2006 Ebor Handicap at 100/1 for Jane Chapple-Hyam.
