Landsdowne Park was established in 2008 as a sales preparation, spelling and agistment farm for Thoroughbreds. In 2016, the relocation to a 50-acre purpose-built property bordering the Waikato River in Cambridge offered the opportunity to expand and develop the services and facilities available.

Landsdowne Park offers an ample stable block and a combination of individual colt paddocks and larger paddocks. All paddocks are fenced using Horse Rail which is widely acknowledged as one of the safest fencing systems. Day/rehabilitation yards, mare and foal crush, arena, truck/float loading ramp and holding yards have also been designed with safety as a priority.

Landsdowne Park is owned by Dave Duley and Jude Latimer, with Dave being responsible for the day-to-day running of the farm.

Having been involved with horses from an early age, Dave has always had an active interest in racing and breeding. Following a successful professional rugby career, he took the opportunity to establish Landsdowne Park and embark on a career with horses.

Now heavily involved in all facets of the industry, Dave is currently the President of the Waikato Branch of the New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders Association.

Yearling preparation is a particular interest for Dave. He is committed to ensuring the horses in the Landsdowne Park draft reach the sales as well educated, confident individuals.

Dave has successfully pinhooked for many years. He attends all major weanling sales in Australasia and enjoys the opportunity to view the progeny of emerging stallions and maintain connections with other industry professionals.

Jude was raised in Ireland and graduated with a Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery from the University of Edinburgh in 2005. She entered equine practice and worked for The Irish National Stud, Troytown Equine Hospital and HH Aga Khan Studs whilst in Ireland.

Jude spent several years in a reproduction practice in Australia and, in 2015, completed a post-graduate qualification in Advanced Veterinary Practice through the University of Liverpool. She has been the Resident Veterinary Surgeon at Windsor Park Stud since 2016.

Dave and Jude are dedicated to the horses in their care. They prioritise client communication and aim to build a personal relationship with owners/trainers in order to meet the needs of every individual horse.
