Growing AllanBloodlines to its present scope and beyond is an
all-consuming priority for David who leads the company full time having, until
some years ago, also spent many years in shipping and hotel/leisure ownership
and finance. Applying broad business experience to a lifetime love of
horses, David became active in bloodstock more than 20 years ago and drives
each of the company's divisions, always insisting on good communication and the
search for value. David is a Council Member of the Federation of
Bloodstock Agents and member of both the Racehorse Owners Association and
Thoroughbred Breeders Association.

a partner for clients, Yoshiko enjoys the racecourse and takes a close interest
in breeding plans for mares. She is active in AllanBloodlines' agency
services at sales especially in assisting and entertaining overseas clients.
Whilst the Japanese language is an obvious advantage in dealings with that
country, Yoshi's contribution extends to good friends and clients in half a
dozen countries or more.
