Chris is the mastermind and the heart of 6th SENSE PEDIGREES and the creator of the Elite Racehorse Selection System (ERSS). He is a successful owner, breeder, stud farm and stallion manager in his homeland Greece with notable appearances all over Europe in the past 35 years, and most significantly, he is a pedigree “junkie”. Racehorse pedigrees have been a passion since the University years in the UK. Racing and breeding have been Chris’s single pastime – turned into work upon his return to Greece when he built and operated Statepark Stables Stallion Station, and also managed the matings and bloodstock purchases of the most successful stud farm in Greece, the Elia Stud. Chris enjoyed numerous graded stakes wins, including five local derbies, a derby in Bulgaria and a 2,000gns among plenty of other black type races in Cyprus, a couple of appearances following invitations at the Dubai World Cup Festival with Greek bred horses, a Gr.3 placing at Ascot in the UK and a Gr.3 placing at San Siro in Italy.
Chris also represented world leading auctioneers TATTERSALLS in Greece for a number of years, and also worked closely with DARLEY and the Greek Thoroughbred Breeders Association, sending mares to the Newmarket Stud. All of the aforementioned with very limited resources and limited access to quality stallions, as Greece is quite remote from the high-profile horseracing European nations. ERSS is the final product following years of data analysis and experiments, and it is a system that processes and brings together the amazing work of fellow pedigree analysts from around the world, and Chris is delighted with the results.

Jim has been actively involved in racing since his youth. He has enjoyed success as an owner at the top local level in his homeland Greece. Jim has always been interested in the development of the thoroughbred and has studied pedigrees extensively in the last 20 years. Being a close personal friend of Chris, Jim has been of immeasurable assistance in the later stages of the development of ERSS. He is a most valuable member of the 6th SENSE PEDIGREES team with a great eye for a racehorse. Jim has been a member of the Greek Thoroughbred Owners Association since 2008 and a member of the Greek Jockey Club since 2019.

Chris is our IT expert. He is a racing enthusiast and has worked in various positions in the industry, most notably as a racing/handicap analyst, and secretary for the Greek Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Union a few years back. He also set up and operated the specialist horseracing website, Jockeynews.gr, which was a great success in 2017-2019. Chris has singlehandedly developed ERSS backbone program and is a great asset to 6th SENSE PEDIGREES. He is currently developing sub programs that will assist the team in speeding up their responses to customers as well as save valuable time in automatically discarding a large number of horses with mediocre pedigrees from long lists of catalogued lots at public auctions.
