Geir Stabell

Geir Stabell, founder of www.globeform.co.uk, has been a Thoroughbred writer and handicapper for 35 years. With his main focus on international racing, Stabell was the first handicapper to compile a handicap giving a direct comparison of European and North American horses, when his first Globeform Annual was published in 1991. Stabell has written 14 books on Thoroughbreds, giving analyses of form and breeding, and his freelance articles have been published throughout Europe, in the U.S., Dubai and Hong Kong over the years.
