Juddmonte General Manager Garrett O'Rourke joined an OwnerView panel Sept. 3, which included Peter Bradley of Bradley Thoroughbreds and Medallion Racing Manager Phillip Shelton, to discuss the international racing market, the online conference said in a Friday release by the Jockey Club of America who co-hosts the series.
During the event O'Rourke was asked about Juddmonte's process when it comes to where they race their horses and how they decide to keep certain stock either abroad or in the U.S.
“It used to be, years ago, sometimes when Lasix was allowed over here [the United States], we would bring a horse that maybe needed Lasix, but that's not an issue anymore,” said O'Rourke.
A Q&A, sponsored by West Point Thoroughbreds, allowed attendees to post questions, which were then answered at the conclusion of the webinar.
Co-hosted by the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association and presented by Bessemer Trust, Stoll Keenon Ogden, and The Green Group, the panel was sponsored by Centennial Farms and Coolmore America.
