Media Release - Sunday May 1

In line with the growth of Kia Ora Stallions, the appointment of Belle Howard in a Nomination Sales role comes at an opportune time.

Belle Howard has joined Kia Ora Stallions to work in nominations and sales.

The daughter of prominent Pedigree Analyst Jane Henning, Belle has a keen interest and understanding of thoroughbred bloodlines that will stand her in good stead to be a vital asset for Kia Ora Stallions and their clients.

Previously, Belle represented Sydney based racehorse syndication companies Triple Crown Syndications and Champion Thoroughbreds in the role of Racing Manager, cutting her teeth on bloodstock sales, marketing and relationship building.

Belle has most recently worked with NSW breeders, trainers and owners as a Territory Manager with Hygain and Mitavite feeds in equine nutrition.

"I am incredibly proud to be joining the Kia Ora team. The farm has a significant history in Australia's breeding and racing industry where they have consistently produced top-class racehorses for over 100 years," said Belle.

"Kia Ora's growing stallion roster is particularly exciting for me. Farnan and Prague have had a fantastic start at stud, covering quality books of mares, with their first foals hitting the ground later this year.

"Along with the recent acquisition of Captivant, another top-class 2YO colt and spectacular physical type, there's plenty to look forward to," Belle concluded.

Describing the role as having secured her' dream job', Belle is joining Kia Ora Stallions this month. Belle can be reached on +61 401 485 584.
