Racehorse Trader back up and running after being purchased

Racehorse Trader is back up and online after being purchased by Ed Babington and Alice Lukey-Smith, the online marketplace has announced.

With a number of enhancements being made to the website the focus will now be on sales listings, providing owners with a flexible option for listing their horses, breeding stock and shares.

Babington said: “We are excited to relaunch the Racehorse Trader website. We have a good, loyal client base and are looking forward to offering them the ability to list their horses and shares for sale at a time that suits them.

“As an owner myself, having the ability to sell a horse at a time that suits you is so important. The listing also provides owners with a good value and flexible outlet for selling their horses.

“As we launch, we have a number of exciting lots listed for sale and moving forward we will continue to develop the website and our audience.”

Racehorse Trader has been a long-standing feature of the bloodstock industry, having been launched in October 2012 by its former owner Michael Harris.
