An expert bloodstock buyer,
combining proven success with fresh innovation


Bevan Smith Bloodstock (BSB) has a proven record of purchasing high-quality bloodstock and we’re launching an exciting new end-to-end product for the 2025 yearling sales season in Australasia.

  • The BSB approach takes care of not only your sales needs but it also includes a unique collaboration with Australasia’s premier thoroughbred marketing agency Ziba Creative to support all your requirements from purchase through to syndication.

  • BSB was formed five years ago and has seen almost immediate success, purchasing two Group 1 winners and multiple stakes winners over that time. These achievements are all the more impressive when budget and scale constraints are taken into consideration.

    Noteworthy examples include Group 1 winners On the Bubbles and Warmonger, purchased for $60,000 and NZ$75,000 respectively and Chrysaor, a $60,000 purchase, who has since amassed over $1m in prizemoney – a return on investment of 1600%.

    The aforementioned examples were purchased with pinhooking in mind but BSB would like to cultivate a relationship with a trainer who’s looking to invest in promising, athletic yearlings to retain and produce for their own clients – ultimately saving them money. 

 
 

“I’m looking to align myself with a trainer who
wants to invest in Athletic, high class yearlings”

- Bevan Smith


The BSB Sales Experience

BSB offers a package of services specifically designed to ease the workload for Freedman Racing.

The package includes:

  • Handling of vetting process

  • Post-sale care

  • A new and exciting collaboration
    with Ziba Creative

  • On-farm inspections for Magic Millions

  • Attendance at all yearling sales in Australasia

  • Inspection of every yearling at all major yearling sales

  • Shortlists made for every sale

 

2025 will see BSB attend all major yearling sales on the Australasian calendar, inspecting all catalogued horses and creating shortlists for Freedman Racing.

Plus BSB will handle all aspects of the sales process for you. 
Pre-sale, this includes shortlisting, valuing and vet liaison.
Post-sale, BSB will handle insurance, freight and we can even recommend spelling farms and breakers.

As a trainer, your time is precious and often better spent at your stable. BSB will create a culture of trust with you, whereby the groundwork has been completed, a shortlist created, and you are only required to inspect the yearlings that are worthy of your interest.

 

BSB can offer you more than this though…

You’ll have access to bespoke content to share with your database and on social media.  A single video created by Ziba has reached up to 100,000 viewers, such is the quality of their work. 

In a new innovation, BSB has collaborated with Ziba Creative, the premier thoroughbred marketing agency in Australasia, to support your promotional requirements as well. 

Ziba Creative produces a premium product that will assist us in promoting, and ultimately, selling shares in any yearlings purchased.

This service is managed by us, included in the BSB Buying Toolkit Fee, and you’ll receive a ready-made product – All designed to take the stress out of marketing your purchases.

The Fit

  • The four core values that represent BSB are integrity, reliability, innovation and passion.  BSB will become someone you can rely upon, secure in the knowledge that we’ll go above and beyond to support your needs. 

    Thinking outside of the box is an important pillar for us.  We’re continually striving for new ways to be better through innovation and see BSB as a partner with a future-facing ethos.

    Bevan Smith, principal of BSB, has had a lifetime of involvement in the industry, instilling a strong passion for racing and thoroughbreds – it is a true love for horses.

    These values are something BSB see’s in Freedman Racing and your ability as a trainer is of the top level. BSB would like to support you to ensure you continue to train winners, and winners of good races at that.

 

The Fee

  • Traditional 5% commission charges are outdated and don’t provide value to the consumer.

    BSB will offer the complete BSB Buying Toolkit to Freedman Racing at a flat fee of $7,500 per horse purchased at auction, no matter the purchase price. This includes the complete buying process through to the excellent marketing product provided by Ziba Creative – a compelling offer.   

 

“I really believe I can source the right horses
for your stable and help cement your continued success”

- Bevan Smith
