Flint Cottage Stables

Flint Cottage Stables is an 80-box racehorse training complex in the heart of Newmarket.

We are very grateful to our yard sponsor Russell Trew, who has given us the identity we have on the Heath. Our bright red livery is now very well established and we cannot thank Russell enough.

Our facilities include an historic indoor ride, which is over one furlong round with our own equine pool , a specialist veterinary box, turn-out paddock and covered horsewalker; we also run a fleet of three horseboxes.

About Newmarket

Newmarket is the headquarters of British horseracing - some would say world horseracing, for its facilities are uique and unrivalled anywhere.

There are 2,800 acres of fully-maintained training grounds which include 50 miles of turf gallops and 17 miles of artificial surfaces. The town, the stable yards, the surrounding studs, the two racecourses and the famous heath are steeped in racing history which goes back four centuries.

Horses trained in Newmarket win many of the major races every season, both at home and abroad. And with the world's leading equine vets, the renowned auctioneers Tattersalls as well as top-class farriers, saddlers and ancillary services associated to racing, it is no wonder that the horse takes priority in the town - it is a truly unique town. 

Dullingham Park Stud

Mark and Angie's stud is set in almost 100 acres, in the village of Dullingham, just three miles out of Newmarket (pictured right). The stud operates in conjunction with the main training yard.

It is a fast-developing breeding establishment in its own right, and many of the mares currently housed there were trained by Mark in their racing days. They include Optimistic, Qilin, Topatori, Mega, Sosumi and Nutmeg to name a few. Topatori bred 2007 Middleton Stakes (Group 3) winner, Topatoo, herself now retired as a broodmare. Mark trained also Highbrook, the dam of Ted Spread, winner of the 2010 Chester Vase (Group 3). He was bred at Dullingham and raised at Garrowby.

And, at Garrowby Stud (pictured left), newly-purchased and home-bred yearlings begin their education while horses in training can enjoy a spell of rest and recuperation away from the hurly burly of Newmarket. Please view the 'Stud and Breeding' page.
