In 2002 Neil King purchased the Middle and Lower yards at St Gatien Stables, Newmarket. The Jockey Club granted him his Trainer's Licence in August 2003. Although he intends to concentrate his efforts on the National Hunt side of racing, he also enjoys having runners on the Flat. St Gatien Stables were built in the late 1880’s by the famous Bob Sherwood Sr who trained St Gatien to win the Derby in 1884.

Denis Coakley trains racehorses at Keeper's Stables, offering owners value and commitment by constantly delivering optimum performance from all the horses he trains. West Ilsley is home to some of the country's finest and most historic gallops. These gallops have provided the training grounds for such greats as Brigadier Gerard and Nashwaan, amongst 3 Derby winners, 3 Ascot Gold Cup winners and numerous other Group winners.
