After training as a jump jockey apprenticeship as a young teenager, Tony Coyle has spent his entire career working with racehorses, dedicating his life to learning their behaviours and perfecting his training skills.
With decades of experience managing and running full-service training stables, Tony has established himself as a highly knowledgeable figure in the racing world and knows how to get the best from all the horses he works with. This is evident through his impressive track record in training winning horses. Operating from a purpose-built, fully-equipped stables and training facility in Norton, Tony now provides his services to clients across the UK with the help of his on-site dedicated team.

Making connections and meeting new people is an essential part of racing. Tony prides himself on offering a personalised service, and is renowned for his down-to-earth and honest work ethic. From talking all things racing over a cup of tea (or something stronger!) to general training advice – Tony likes to get to know his clients on a personal level. Building this trust leads to better results, on and off the track.
Excellent Facilities
You can be sure that your horse is in safe hands when being trained by Tony. All horses under his care are securely housed in high-quality stables where they benefit from his comprehensive facilities including paddocks where they are turned out every day. He is ideally positioned as the yard is directly on the gallops.
