Herewith the Dragon Racing Management Team.
Raised in the racing world, Butch Beaton-Brown started his career in the thoroughbred industry two decades ago following in his family’s footsteps. Over the years Butch has forged strong relationships with Europe's elite trainers and jockeys and is a well-known and respected figure in the international racing world. His remit will be to work closely with Andy Smith once the stock has been purchased, placing the horses with their nominated trainers before overseeing and monitoring the progress of each individual horse to maximise its racing potential and more importantly its value.
With a wealth of racing knowledge Butch will co-ordinate all communications to each individual shareholder of Dragon Racing, keeping them closely in touch with their thoroughbred investments.
Butch lives in Newmarket, known fondly as "The home of Racing" and every morning watches work in progress with the top trainers to keep his eyes on improving horses and follow their racing careers.
