The G2 Flying Childers Stakes winner Aesterius will become the latest son of Mehmas to join the stallion ranks and has been retired to Bearstone Stud for the 2026 breeding season. He will stand at a fee of £6,500. Bred by Sean Maguire and owned by Wathnan Racing, Aesterius also won the G3 Prix d'Arenberg at Longchamp and Sandown's Listed Dragon Stakes, as well as finishing runner-up in the G3 Molecomb Stakes during a busy juvenile campaign in 2024. A £380,000 breeze-up purchase by Richard Brown of Blandford Bloodstock, he was trained by Archie Watson. Speaking on behalf of Wathnan Racing, Brown said, “Aesterius is a gorgeous looking colt with brilliant speed and a willing attitude. With his proven class, temperament and sire Mehmas's record for producing top juveniles, he looks every inch an exciting young stallion prospect.” Bearstone Stud owner Terry Holdcroft added, “We're delighted to welcome Aesterius to Bearstone Stud. He's exactly the type of horse breeders are looking for—early, fast, tough, and by one of the most reliable sources of two-year-old speed in Europe. His race record speaks for itself, and he's an exciting addition to our roster.” The post Aesterius Joins Bearstone Stud at £6,500 Fee appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Matthew Prior, an associate director of Tattersalls since the beginning of 2024, has been appointed to the new role of managing director. Prior joined Tattersalls in the bloodstock sales department in 2012 and has developed into a senior member of the Tattersalls management team, combining yearling inspections and horse recruitment with the position of head of sales at Cheltenham. He has also represented Tattersalls on a number of industry committees, as well as sitting on the Board of Tattersalls Ireland since 2021. “It is an enormous privilege to be appointed managing director of Tattersalls, a company with such a proud history and tradition,” said Prior. “I am fortunate to work alongside a team of exceptional talent and dedication and I look forward to working with Edmond Mahony and the Tattersalls Board along with everyone across the business to uphold the values of integrity and excellence that define Tattersalls.” He added, “I remain committed to serving the best interests of our clients, both vendors and purchasers, whose trust and support continue to underpin Tattersalls' enduring success.” Prior's fellow associate directors Harvey Bell and Jason Singh have also been promoted to the Tattersalls Board as sales director and marketing director, respectively. Tattersalls Ireland Board member Tammy O'Brien will also be joining the main Board, with the new appointments scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2026. Bell, who also joined Tattersalls in 2012, takes on the role of sales director after overseeing sales coordination for a number of years, as well as auctioneering and undertaking yearling inspections. Jason Singh joins the Tattersalls Board having held the position of marketing manager for more than 20 years after starting with Tattersalls in 2000. Meanwhile, O'Brien served as racing manager with Coolmore for 20 years, before taking on the role of Tattersalls international client relations and strategic development manager in 2017. She was appointed to the Tattersalls Ireland Board in 2023. Edmard Mahony, who will continue in his role as chairman of both Tattersalls and Tattersalls Ireland, said of the new appointments, “All four of the newly appointed Tattersalls Board members, Matthew Prior, Harvey Bell, Tammy O'Brien and Jason Singh, are already hugely respected individuals within the global bloodstock industry and we are fortunate to be able to bring four such dedicated and experienced individuals onto the Tattersalls Board simultaneously. “Matthew Prior has consistently demonstrated all the attributes to take on the new role of managing director and he will be ably supported by his fellow Board members, all of whom share a deep and abiding commitment to the continued success of Tattersalls.” The post Matthew Prior Named Managing Director as Tattersalls Appoints Four New Board Members appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
