Tina Rau Joins Aga Khan Studs As International Nominations Representative

[Wandering Eyes]

Bloodstock agent Tina Rau has joined the Aga Khan Studs as international nominations representative; a newly created role aimed at strengthening the team's presence at the major European sales. Rau will work alongside Julie White and Fanny Cyprès, who oversee nominations and client relations for the Irish and French stallion rosters respectively. 

A graduate of both the Irish National Stud and the Godolphin Flying Start programmes, Rau founded her own agency in 2009 and has since been involved in the purchase of multiple Group 1 and Classic winners and their dams.

She is also the German representative for Tattersalls and will continue that role as well as her own work as a bloodstock agent alongside her new responsibilities. 

Rau said, “I am delighted and honoured to be joining the Aga Khan Studs, particularly at a time when their stallion roster is at its strongest ever. I look forward to supporting breeders in their stallion selections and to working closely with the existing team to promote these outstanding horses at the European sales.” 

The Aga Khan Studs currently stand five stallions; Sea The Stars at Gilltown Stud in Ireland, managed by Pat Downes, and Siyouni, Zarak, Vadeni and Erevann at Haras de Bonneval in France, under the management of Pierre Gasnier. Rau can be contacted on +33 (0)6 72 22 80 74.
