Tattersalls Ireland has announced the permanent appointment of current and two-time Irish Point to Point Champion Jamie Codd (pictured centre) to the role of Tattersalls Ireland Horses in Training Representative effective from 1 September 2016.

Jamie already had an association with the sales at Tattersalls Ireland having bid-spotted at Fairyhouse for the past three years and in the last year having also assisted with the sales at Cheltenham and Ascot. 

Commenting on his appointment, Jamie Codd said; 

“I am delighted to be joining the team at Tattersalls Ireland on a permanent basis. Since Tattersalls Ireland took over the sales at Cheltenham and Ascot, I have had the opportunity to gain a real insight into the operation of these sales; these venues are exciting and I am looking forward to using my knowledge and contacts to develop the sales along with the Tattersalls Ireland team. It’s an exciting time for me.” 

Tattersalls Ireland Managing Director Roger Casey said; 

“We are delighted to welcome Jamie to the team at Tattersalls Ireland on a permanent basis. He has a wealth of knowledge on the pointing and racing fields and an expansive network of contacts which we firmly believe will help the on-going development of our Horses in Training Sales. Jamie’s appointment comes at an opportune time; the National Hunt and Point to Pointing Seasons are about to get into full swing and he will immediately focus on the growth of the upcoming HIT sales, beginning with the sales at Cheltenham and Ascot in November. ”
