Tattersalls Ireland offers an outstanding range of horses across its Flat and National Hunt sales, and I look forward to continuing to build relationships within the Polish racing industry and welcoming even more buyers to Fairyhouse in the years ahead.”He added, “Seeing Time For The Star win the Polish Derby was a very proud moment for me. I was delighted to help source him at the September Yearling Sale and his success is another example of the quality and value available at Tattersalls Ireland.”Tattersalls Ireland CEO Simon Kerins said, “We are delighted to officially welcome Tomasz to the team. He has already established excellent relationships with our Polish clients and has played an important role in growing our business in this market. His previous experience in Polish racing as both a jockey and trainer, combined with his understanding of the Polish and Irish racing industries, makes him an invaluable addition to our international representative team.”The announcement also coincides with the renewal of Tattersalls Ireland's sponsorship of one of Warsaw's premier racedays in August, where both Tattersalls Ireland and Tattersalls will sponsor feature races.The post Tomasz Szumski Joins Tattersalls Ireland as Polish Representative appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
