Press release, June 25, 2015
Darley has announced that Darren Fox has been appointed Sales Manager of their stallion division in America.
Darren, who hails from County Roscommon in the western part of Ireland, graduated from the Darley Flying Start course in 2009 and worked for Darley in America for four years prior to moving to his position as Stallion Seasons Director at WinStar Farm in Kentucky. A graduate of the University of Limerick with a degree in Equine Science, Darren will oversee the sales team at Darley.
Dan Pride, COO of Darley in America, said, “We are very excited that Darren decided to rejoin us at Darley. He brings with him a great deal of experience given his four years on our nominations team in Kentucky and his tenure at WinStar. With Darren’s background and his relationships, he is certain to make a significant contribution to our management team and we look forward to welcoming him back to Darley at the beginning of July.”
Fox responded, “I am leaving a great organization, and I’m very thankful for the opportunity afforded me by Kenny Troutt and Elliott Walden at WinStar. However, Darley is where I first became immersed in the Thoroughbred business, both as a participant in the Darley Flying Start program, and then the time I spent in the nominations department at Jonabell. I’m very excited about returning to the team there and can’t wait to get started.”
