He also worked for Cromwell Bloodstock from 1990 – 1995.

Background: Niall Brennan has been involved with Thoroughbreds his entire life. At age 16, he won his first race on his way to a successful career as a jockey in Ireland. He later switched his focus to a training career and traveled around the world expanding his knowledge of the industry. He worked at tracks and farms in New Zealand, Australia, California, and Kentucky before settling in 1987 to train for George Steinbrenner at Kinsman Farm in Florida. Brennan debuted his first two-year-old sales consignment in 1991 and has since become one of the most prominent juvenile consignors in North America. In 1999, he was noted as the leading juvenile consignor with gross sales of $8,483,500. Brennan’s program has produced four champions - Meadow Star, Term Limits (Canada), KissANative (Canada), and Kurofune (Japan) – and more than 16 Grade 1 winners. Prominent April Sale Graduates: Grade 1 winners Golden Ticket, Love and Pride, Carson Hollow, Fabulous Fast, Panty Raid, and Twice the Vice; Grade 2 winners Bowman’s Band, Roshani, Supremo, and Star of Manila; Grade 3 winners Summer Front, Ijigen, Diggins, Drum Major, Elusive Bluff, In Contention, Noonmark, Pleasant Temper, and Snowdrops (GB).

Background: Ciaran Dunne, a native of Kildare, Ireland, grew up on the grounds of the Irish National Stud where his father was the master gardener. Right out of high school, solely due to his father’s position, Ciaran enrolled in the Stud Management Course at Irish Stud. After graduation, he worked in English stables but soon headed to Kentucky to find a job and raise money to go to Australia. In 1987, Steve Johnson gave him an opportunity to work at Margaux Stud and Dunne has been in the U.S. ever since. That position led to jobs at the racetrack and at Glenwood Farm where he met his wife, Amy. Amy, a graduate of the University of Louisville’s Equine Program, worked as an exercise rider at Glenwood Farm when she met Ciaran. A native of Louisville, Kentucky, Amy was making her own way in the industry by working as a stud groom at Three Chimneys and for bloodstock agent Mike Ryan. In 1994, the couple moved to Ocala and started their own training program a year later. In 2002, they purchased their own farm and continue their primary focus of pinhooking and starting young horses. Since then, they have become one of the top juvenile consignors in North America. In 2009, Wavertree Stables was the second-leading juvenile consignor overall, selling 59 horses for $7,846,500. Prominent April Sale Graduates: Grade 3 winners What a Name (IRE), Grab Your Heart, Gone Fishin, and Stream Cat; and stakes winners Karama and My Heavenly Sign.

Background: A native of Meath, Ireland, and a former steeplechase jockey, Woods relocated to Ocala more than 15 years ago and has since built a 240-acre training center. Woods comes from a family of horsemen as his father was a steeplechase jockey and trainer. He gained additional experience in the industry from Tony and Joanne Everard. Woods is perennially among the nation’s leading two-year-old consignors. In 2002, he was the leading consignor of Grade 1 winners in North America, and in 2010, he was represented by more graded stakes winners than any other juvenile consignor. In 2009, he ranked as the leading juvenile consignor with gross sales of $8,061,500. He has prepped and sold three champions – Big Brown, Left Bank and Midnight Lute. Prominent April Sale Graduates: Champion Big Brown, winner of the 2008 Kentucky Derby (G1) and Preakness (G1); Grade 1 winners Borrego and Haynesfield; Grade 2 winners Kara’s Orientation, Cool Conductor, My Jen, and Pollard’s Vision; Grade 3 winners Maltese Heat, Prussian, Saintly Look, Sorcerer’s Stone, and Zillah the Hun.

Location: Ocala, Florida Website: www.demeric.com

2012 April Sale Figures: 12 horses sold for $1,582,000 (ranked third) Background: Nick de Meric knew at an early age that he wanted to work with horses. After showing ponies and riding pointto-point races as a young boy in England, De Meric gained hands-on racing experience from legendary Australian trainer Tommy Smith, and English trainers Brian Swift, Roger Stack and R.C. Sturdy. In the early 1980s, he traveled to the U.S. to work with such highly regarded sales agents as L. Clay Camp, Lee Eaton and Fred Seitz. He also broke and rode young horses for a number of respected Florida Thoroughbred farms. With his wife, Jaqui, de Meric began Manuden Farm near Ocala in the mid-1980s. Today the operation has expanded to encompass the 120-acre farm, the adjoining 240-acre de Meric Stables, which features a state-of-the-art swimming facility, and the nearby Eclipse Training Center.
