Speakers
Each year we are fortunate to have a host of
experienced and informative speakers.
You can read about them below.
Angela Avery
Angela has made a career of helping
us how to make better use of our natural pasture advantages here in Australia.
Her work and publications on pasture improvement are second to none.
Peter J Huntington
Peter is the resident guru on how
to achieve your ideal horse with supplement feeds . He has worked as a horse specialist
for the Victorian Government and as advisor for Rhone Poulenc. About 6 years ago
he was
head-hunted by Kentucky Equine Research (KER), a firm specialising in research
into horse nutrition. He now directs their Australian division.
Sarah Jalim
Sarah is Welsh and has a style all
of her own. She is clever and talented and loves surgery and lameness. She can
do what ever she puts her mind to. She can be great to work with, knowledgeable and loves to play.
Angus is the driving force behind
our conferences which is strange given his increased weight and loss of hair. He trace his interests with horse reproduction back to a
stallion which was a gift from Sir Chester Manifold in 1975. He has published books,
bulletins, refereed publications and his enthusiastic presentations are always
in demand both here and overseas.
Simon Robinson
Came to
us via Alabar farms in Echuca. He has just completed his veterinary degree
whilst managing Alabar farm (not a bad effort). Alabar if the biggest horse farm
in the southern hemisphere and maybe the biggest Standardbred farm in the world.
Simon has great skills in reproduction and now has a interest in equine
veterinary medicine.
James R Vasey
Jim is one of the senior partners in our practice. He has surgery as a main
interest. Jim is one of only a handful of surgeons to
have passed into the 'Surgeons Hall of Fame' by examination (Fellowship of the
Australian College of Veterinary Scientists in the Equine Surgery chapter). Jim brings a style to the conference that could
only have been achieved by a long and fruitful career in veterinary
medicine.
