Mike and Kate remained at Brooklyn Lodge for eight years, before setting up their own business out of the nearby Broadwater Farm in 2011.

In April 2015 Mike and Kate purchased the historic Bhima Stud and shifted their business and the mares of many loyal supporters across to the property on the outskirts of Scone. The reputation of Bhima as one of Australia’s elite yearling vendors has continued to develop over the last several years, with the brand name synonymous with both sale and racetrack success.
