New Stud Manager for Cornerstone Stud

Media Release - Tuesday November 10

Cornerstone Stud are pleased to announce the arrival of our new Stud Manager Ross Fuller from South Africa with his partner Carla Greppi (Vet Nurse).

We are very excited to welcome them to the team as we forge into 2021 and beyond.

Ross Fuller and Carla Greppi.

Ross previously developed and managed Mrs Rupert's Drakenstein Stud and then more recently took charge of the Kieswetter's Ridgemont Stud .

Ross left his indelible stamp of professionlism and success on both studs, with both becoming recognised as industry leaders under his management.

South Africa's loss is very much the Barossa's gain and we are very excited for what the future holds.
