Training Staff


Here at Michael & David Easterby Racing we are extremely proud of our staff. Training racehorses is all about team work and every member of the team has a vital role in getting the racehorses to the racecourse.

We have vast amounts of experience amongst our staff, from the administration through to our stable staff and work riders. We also employ specialist staff to train the younger horses. Of course we have access to top class vets, farriers and all the other roles vital to keep our horses happy and healthy so that they can perform at their peak on the racecourse.

Our staff are listed below and you can click the names to find out more. There is also a staff photo library so you can find pictures of each team member.
