Arthur Dobell joins Oliver St Lawrence Bloodstock in assistant role

Oliver St Lawrence Bloodstock has appointed Arthur Dobell as an assistant at the Newmarket-based agency.

Dobell has a wealth of hands-on experience, having worked at some of the world’s most respected studs including Highclere Stud in the UK, Northern Farm in Japan, Arrowfield Stud in Australia and Haras Vacacion in Argentina. Most recently, the 25-year-old has been serving as pupil assistant trainer to Ed Bethell in North Yorkshire.

St Lawrence said: "I’m delighted to welcome Arthur to OSL, who has impressed me with his knowledge, hard work and honest demeanour.

"Arthur will be concentrating on the sale of nominations over the coming months, which has become a busy part of our
services.

"We traded 250 nominations in 85 different stallions for 175 purchasers, all on behalf of shareholders this last covering season. He will be travelling abroad and will be looking after his own clients at the sales and privately."
