David O’Meara

Formerly a successful National Hunt jockey, with 126 winners to his name, David O’Meara joined the training ranks in 2010 and wasted little time in making a mark in his new profession. Indeed, like those experiencing a streak of luck on https://www.casinoza.com/ he saddled his first winner, Simple Jim, at Redcar on June 19, 2010, just nine days after receiving his training licence. In his first three seasons, he sent out 25, 48 and 69 winners from his original base

in Nawton, North Yorkshire. Highlights of his early training career included his first Group winner, Blue Bajan, ridden by newly-appointed stable jockey Daniel Tudhope, in the Henry II Stakes at Sandown in May, 2011.

In 2013, O’Meara enjoyed his best season so far, numerically, with 136 winners, but has sent out over a hundred winners in every season since. In 2014, he saddled his first Group 1 winner, G Force, in the Haydock Sprint Cup and his second, Move In Time, in the Prix de l’Abbaye de Longchamp less than a month later. Further success at the highest level followed, courtesy of Amazing Maria, in the Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket and the Prix Rothschild at Deauville, and Mondialiste, in the Woodbine Mile Stakes, in 2015.

The following January, O’Meara moved to his current base, the purpose-built, 120-acre Willow Farm in Upper Helmsley, North Yorkshire. At the last count, he had saddled nine Group 1, or Grade 1, winners and, on July 7, 2020, passed the landmark of 1,000 winners on the Flat in Britain.
