Matt Scown will be joining the Yarraman Park management team in 2020.

Joins management team next year. The Mitchell family have announced that Matt Scown will be returning to Yarraman Park to join the management team in 2020.

Scown was previously at Yarraman Park for over 4 years until his move to Victoria to expand his industry experience which includes his current role as Inglis Bloodstock Consultant along with Hong Kong & New Zealand representative.

"We're delighted to welcome Matt back to Yarraman. He's a natural horseman, hard worker with the right attitude. Matt will fit in well back in Scone," said Harry Mitchell. 

"We have always had a lot of time for Matt. He has gained significant experience in both racing and bloodstock over the past couple of years. He will become a vital member of the team at the sales and on the farm," Arthur Mitchell said.

Scown is looking forward to returning to Yarraman Park. 

"I am extremely honoured to be returning to the Yarraman Park family with my wife to work alongside Harry and Arthur Mitchell again," he said.

"Harry and Arthur bestowed a very rare opportunity for me to come back to Yarraman Park as part of the senior management team. It is a very exciting time to be joining the team at Yarraman Park as the farm has gone from strength to strength with their resident sire I Am Invincible breaking records on both the race track and having phenomenal results in the sale ring, as well as the first Hellbent weanlings gracing the sales rings with their presence in 2020.

"I cannot thank Arthur Inglis, Mark Webster and the team at Inglis enough for the past two years, I have been given countless opportunities to improve my knowledge in the thoroughbred industry and exposure throughout Hong Kong." 

Matt will have his last day at Inglis on 23 December.
