Profits climb at company of racehorse trainer Aidan O’Brien

The racehorse training and bloodstock firm operated by the country’s most successful horse trainer Aidan O’Brien last year had a bumper year record profits of over €625,000.

Showing that the Co Wexford native has the Midas touch on and off the race course, figures lodged with the Companies Office show Mr O’Brien’s Whisperview Trading Ltd also increased its accumulated profits by €626,630 from €5.99m to €6.61m in the 12 months to the end of January last year.

Mr O’Brien oversees the Ballydoyle stable at John Magnier’s Coolmore empire in south Tipperary.
