Tinkler selling horse racing empire Nathan Tinkler has put his Patinack Farm empire, which comprises more than 1,000 horses, for sale. EMBATTLED coal baron Nathan Tinkler is selling his horse racing empire. Mr Tinkler's Tinkler Group has put Patinack Farm, which comprises more than 1,000 horses and facilities in the NSW Hunter Valley and Queensland's Gold Coast, on the market. "Since its establishment in 2007, Patinack Farm has become a leading racing and breeding operation," Mr Tinkler said in as statement. As I am spending more time overseas, I do not have the time to manage the business. Patinack Farm comprises a 3,300 acre racing and breeding operation in the Hunter Valley, another 2,410 acres of land in the Hunter Valley and 1,000 acres near the Queensland Gold Coast. The sale will include lifetime breeding rights to star colts All Too Hard and Onemorenomore, which were sold to a consortium headed by Mr Harvey in 2012. Liquidators were appointed to Patinack Farm Administration, the service company responsible for Patinack employees, in 2012 and the wind-up of that company, which does not own any Patinack Farm assets, will continue.
