'I look to buy the individual, not the page'

Do you think Brexit will affect trade negatively or positively?

Rob Speers: I'm of the opinion that the racing and bloodstock industries have always been in their own separate bubble. They have survived the boom and busts of the economy before and I don't see why any ripples in the economy at the moment from Brexit would affect the industry.

Stephen Hillen: I can't see Brexit having a negative effect on Deauville in the select section of the sale as most of the top players at this level are recession proof. In Part two and V2 there was a strong French presence last year, and I think this will also be the case this year.
