Offering a comprehensive range of first opinion services across Hertfordshire and the the surrounding areas, the new practice is supported by Rossdales Hospital and Diagnostic Centre in Newmarket when specialist surgery or advanced diagnostic equipment is required.

Former C P Harris & Associates office staff, Claudia Rains and Amanda Boulton, have been joined by Elaine Crockett, who also worked for Chris some years ago. The veterinary team comprises Susanna Ballinger, Lorna Brokenshire-Dyke (from Newmarket) and Nick Parkinson, with Chris Harris and Sidney Ricketts acting as consultants.

Using the Eclipse practice management system, as installed throughout Rossdales, has enabled old and new information to be seamlessly combined to maintain complete histories for animals treated over many years, and having all the x-rays and other diagnostic images immediately available at the touch of a button is a huge bonus in the new system.

Richard Payne seemed delighted with the way all the hard work getting the new premises set up had turned out. "A great facility for all involved - we hope our new staff and clients will be very happy here".

BASIS' first run out was celebrated by a major triumph for Tattersalls Ireland with the first horse in a February Sale going for 100,000 euros. The highest previous price for a horse at this sale, historically, was 80,000 euros.

BASIS is designed specifically to meet the business needs of the Tattersalls organisation. For the Newmarket sales there is also an iPhone and iPad app as an integral part of the system, complete with all the pedigrees plus updates and withdrawals. Sales results are immediately available as horses go through the ring, and the Make-an-Offer facility can also be accessed via the app. Tattersalls catalogues for sales from the year 2000 to date are now available to search and view, saving an awful lot room on that bookshelf!
