Bred For It

Episode 22: Going Global

30 Oct 2025

Description

It's Episode 22:  Jess catches up with Claudia Fitzgerald, Bloodstock Manager for Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott, to uncover the Australian approach to Newmarket: why Tattersalls continues to be a rich source of value, the unique type of horses the UK breeds that the team is so eager to take Down Under, and what tops Gai’s hit list when she sets her sights on a new recruit. Then it’s all eyes on Del Mar for Breeders’ Cup week, where small breeder Kelly Thomas of Maywood Stud is living every breeder’s dream. Hear her remarkable story of breeding not only Gstaad, who heads to California to fly her small stud’s flag on the world stage, but also Vandeek, one of Europe’s outstanding juveniles. It all began with the mare Kelly bred herself who she bought back to breed from at just £800. From Newmarket to Del Mar, this episode celebrates the global reach of bloodlines and the people turning small beginnings into world-class success stories.
