Scott Darby, the General Manager of Darby Racing P/L, brings over 16 years experience in the thoroughbred industry. His passion for horses began at an early age, riding on weekends at a friend's property in the Moss Vale area in NSW. As a teenager, Scott was introduced to horse racing by a school friend, attending a mid-week Canterbury race meeting and was immediately enthralled. From this time onwards, Scott's interest in the racing industry grew, beginning his first job in the thoroughbred industry working for Clarry Conners as a stable hand.

Over the following years, Scott turned his hand to breeding, breaking and pre-training and ownership of race horses. During this time, he gained a vast knowledge and understanding of the racing industry. He has also spent many years studying thoroughbred pedigrees, even formulating his own pedigree ratings system.

In January 2006, Scott helped form one of Australia's leading syndication companies, being appointed to the role of General Manager.

During this time, his responsibilities included the selection of horses, customer service and communication with owners on the progress of their horse as well as responsibility for the general day to day running of that company.

In October 2007, Scott and Renee decided to venture out on their own forming Darby Racing P/L.

Renee Darby, the Director of Darby Racing P/L, learnt to ride horses at a young age developing her love for these animals. Renee later became involved in owning a number of thoroughbreds herself. She has enjoyed many successes on the track, in particular, with a lovely chestnut gelding named 'Flaming'. This horse has been trained by Gai Waterhouse and syndicated by Denise Martin.

Renee is a qualified Primary School teacher, specializing in gifted and talented education. She has been teaching for seven years and has well developed management and organizational skills. With this background and experience, she is able to support her husband Scott in the day to day running of Darby Racing P/L.

As a team, Scott and Renee will provide 'The Ultimate Racing Experience'. They will strive for excellence in race horse syndication and will help subscribers achieve successful race horse ownership.
