| North Yorkshire based racehorse
trainer, Brian Ellison, was born in Newcastle upon Tyne on
June 28th 1952, the same day that the red hot favourite, Souepi,
won the Pitmen's Derby (Northumberland Plate) at Newcastle's
Gosforth Park racecourse.

We now have 64 stables at Spring Cottage, after the construction
of a new barn incorporating 18 new stables was completed in
December 2003 and a further 12 stables adjacent to the barn,
which were built more recently.
The yard has also benefited from the installation of a horse
walker. This is covered and floodlit to enable use when it
is dark and during bad weather. The walker can take up to
five horses at any one time and is invaluable for horses coming
back from injury that require steady controlled exercise.
It is also used to loosen muscles prior to exercise.
