Our yard is on the edge of Newmarket Heath, in the perfect position. It is literally feet away from the 2,500 acre training grounds yet out of the hustle and bustle of the town, enabling us to enjoy the peace and quiet of a rural setting as well as the world class training facilities.
We are also less than three minutes away from the A11 and A14. Proximity to these roads gives me easy and rapid access to almost every racecourse throughout the country; Cheltenham, for instance, is about 2½ hours away while Haydock, Aintree, and Chepstow would be no more than 31/2 .
Although training jumpers continues, numerically, to be what I mainly do, we did add a Group 2 winner (Lady Tiana – Lancashire Oaks) in 2015 to our previous tally of 5 Stakes winners on the Flat; and, while flat racing remains my smaller ‘department’, it has nonetheless become very much mainstream. I am lucky enough to have a number of owners who enjoy runners under both codes and many horses from the flat graduate to make useful jumpers.
If you are interested in owning a horse or a share in one, please do not hesitate to get in touch. I would be delighted to receive your call and also to show you the world class environment that any horse you owned with me would occupy.
