DR MANFRED ROHWER

A leading equine veterinarian and chairman of the SA Equine Veterinary Association, Manfred is a partner in the Baker & McVeigh veterinary organisation which has practices in South Africa, the United Kingdom and France and has been involved in racehorse ownership for many years mostly in partnerships.

Having been involved with horses in many stables he says there have been stories surrounding most of the horses and generally they have been animals on which he has worked where for various reasons a share had become available. “I have never gone out with the intention to buy a horse,” he said from England where he was attending a conference.

During the month three of the horses in which he has a share, Speedjet, Saber’s Beads and Swakopmund, found the winner’s enclosure but he has no offhand recollection of the number of horses in which he has been involved or how many winners he has had.

Well done Manfred
