HORSE STUD MANAGER

The person to make this happen is Allan Bell, who created Victory Park Stud, one of the first and most highly regarded training and breeding properties in South East Queensland. Allan was the Stud Master and Manager. Horses born, bred or trained at Victory Park included Our Cavalier, Brunisee, Prince Anton, Dolcezza, Vigo, Galaxy Gal, Flight Star - just to name a few... Allan secured the first Better Boy horse to ever stand at stud in Queensland, Gay Bachelor and also Bunratty Castle, the first Caulfield Cup winner to stand at stud in Queensland. In the 1980's Allan spent four months overseas visiting studs, attending sales and studying racing throughout Europe and the United States, culminating in the purchase of the very successful sire, Niebo. On his return he purchased Our Paddy Boy from Robert Sangster and initiated the full syndication of the stallion. At one point, Allan's involvement in the industry extended to owner/interest in 56 thoroughbreds!... Take a well earned break..
