ABOUT US
Fergal O’Brien Racing is a dual horse racing training establishment located in the heart of
the Cotswolds. Here at Ravenswell we are blessed with a state of the art training facility
currently comprising over 100 stables, both an uphill and a round gallop as well as an all-
weather schooling strip and grass hurdles strip. On site there is also an Owner’s Room, a
Racing Office and 8 en suite bedrooms for staff accommodation.
At the conclusion of the 24/25 N.H season we had 85 winners whilst amassing circa £1.2
million in prize money. This can be largely attributed to our fantastic team of staff who are all
fully dedicated to the care and the wellbeing of the horses. Our ongoing aim is to ensure that
the horses are well fed, happy and fit in order to give them the best possible chance of
success on the racecourses. It is also very important to us that owners are part of the entire
journey, and we openly welcome visitors to the yard all year round.
We have enjoyed much success since making the move to our permanent home here at
Ravenswell Farm and we aim to continue that upward trajectory.

FARM
Our home at Ravenswell Farm boasts highly impressive facilities and is surrounded by the most wonderful Cotswold Scenery.
Having only been completed in 2019 the facilities are some of the finest in the UK and were installed under the supervision of two of our top trainers; Fergal and Sally.
We are very proud of our home and offer you to take a tour of the farm to get a real feel of the services we offer.
FERGAL O'BRIEN
LEADING RACEHORSE TRAINER
Fergal has been involved in racing for all of his working life since leaving his beloved Ireland in 1989 to head to England in pursuit of a career in the National Hunt field.
He, along with his still friends, Richard Bevis and Richard Curran, initially learnt their trade, and with it the harsh realities of a racing yard, under the strict guidance of 'Captain' Tim Forster OBE and this early experience proved to be a major asset in Fergal’s own journey into horse training.
