Gooree Park Stud has announced the appointment of their new Stud Manager, Peter Ward. He joins the team following the departure of long-time Stud Manager, Andrew Baddock, in July this year.

Peter Ward is the new stud manager for Gooree Park Stud.

Of these, his positions included Foreman at Graeme Sanders Racing (NZ), and Stallion Manager and Stud Manager positions at Highview (NZ), Windsor Park (NZ), and Bell View Park Stud (AUS).

He has worked extensively in all aspects of Stud Management, is an excellent horseman, and has earned the respect of all those he has worked with in the past and within the industry as a whole.
