Bloodstock agent caught in property probe

A Victoria-based racehorse bloodstock management company has been caught up in an anti-corruption inquiry examining three land deals in Melbourne's south eastern suburbs.

The Age reported on Tuesday that Casey councillor Sam Aziz received $5000 per month so he could supposedly purchase racehorses for wealthy Chinese buyers.

However, property developer John Woodman admitted that payments made to Aziz were made to influence his role as a councillor.

The payments made to Aziz had been passed through Spicer Thoroughbreds.
