ABOUT Astute Bloodstock
Astute Bloodstock is a boutique bloodstock agency based in Sydney, Australia, founded by Louis Le Metayer in 2013. Over the past decade, Astute Bloodstock earned a reputation for consistently sourcing elite racehorses and broodmares—often from modest investments—thanks to Louis’ sharp eye, horsemanship, and ability to transact in all sectors of the thoroughbred market. Built on four core pillars—horsemanship, passion, transparency, and expertise—Astute Bloodstock has grown from humble beginnings to achieve major milestones on the global thoroughbred stage. With over 40 years of combined international experience, we’ve successfully sourced top-class horses from France, England, New Zealand, and Australia. What sets us apart is our highly selective approach. Averaging fewer than 20 purchases per year, we focus on quality over quantity and deliver outstanding results without the need for huge budgets or high-volume buying. Our track record proves that in this industry, it’s not about how many horses you buy, but how well you buy. Astute Bloodstock is now in a growth phase, expanding our team to meet increasing clients' demand and continue pursuing our Group 1 ambitions. We live by a simple principle: only buy the horses we’d want to own ourselves. Many of our clients have been with us since day one, and whether you’re a first-time investor or a seasoned owner, you’ll be treated with the same respect, honesty, and commitment that define everything we do.
