Proud to be entrusted with this movement by @coolmorestud @CoolmoreAus Wishing him all the best in Ireland with @Ballydoyle.
Take a look into how Storm Boy made the journey to Ireland last week! 🏇🍀 . He’s got some time to acclimatise to his new surroundings, but rest assured, he’ll be back next year, ready to target some top-class races!. #CoolmoreSires #HomeOfChampions

Best of luck to all connections with runners at Addington this evening, in particular race 1, proudly sponsored by IRT. We appreciate the tremendous support we get from the Harness Racing community and we’re grateful to be a part of it.

IRT is proud of our association with the Harness community. The stables hopefully represents a reflection of our support to all harness participants by saying thank you for flying with us.

We have flights arranged from Australia to the USA to assist any clients looking to get their mares up to Kentucky.

As a global leader in horse transport for 50 years, IRT is proud to celebrate the champions that fly under the radar, such as grooms, loading staff, airport operators, vets and of course, the owners and trainers who have entrusted us with their horses.

Sad news for the equine community with the passing of Dr Patricia Ellis. Its fair to say that if you have moved a horse with us over the last 50 years, Trish's work in biosecurity would have influenced how this movement was facilitated. Our thoughts are with Gary and her family.

Richard Cole, who has been a Managing Director at IRT NZ over the past six years, will now take the reins as the sole Managing Director. David will still retain ownership in the business and an interest in the racing industry while he enjoys his much-deserved retirement.
