Russell Ferris has been appointed chief executive of Weatherbys Ireland following the departure of previous boss Ronan Murphy. Ferris only joined Weatherbys last June as operations director from At The Races where he was commercial director for Ireland, having previously been general manager of Limerick Racecourse for five years. “This is a very exciting opportunity and I thank Ronan for all the excellent work he has done in recent years, Ferris told The Irish Field. “With my family I ave been involved in racing and breeding for many years and am naturally delighted to have been asked to head up Weatherbys Ireland. The business continues to move forward and the coming months will see us launch the GSB online registration platform,” Ferris added.
