Richard Hobson

International Bloodstock Agent

Ex National Hunt jockey Richard Hobson has made a flying start to his Bloodstock career. After riding many winners over jumps throughout Europe and gaining lots of experience for some very successful people, he now purchases horses for some very big names within the industry.
He has bought several good horses for the likes of champion Irish trainer Willie Mullins, Michael O'Leary (boss of Ryanair) and Graham Wylie one of the founders of Sage software company.
He mainly purchases his quality bloodstock from France and speaks fluent French.
