About David O’Meara

A successful NH jockey for 13 years. David rode for Tim Easterby and had a successful partnership with a number of very good horses including Turgeonev and Bells Life. The latter providing him with a notable success in the Foxhunters’ at Aintree in April 2000. In 2010 he entered the training ranks and within a decade had amassed over 1000 winners – one of the quickest ever to reach that milestone in Britain. 

With over 100 winners on the board each year since his maiden century in 2013 David has become well known for sending out large numbers of winners but there has also been several top-level performers. Group 1 success both domestically and internationally has been provided by Suedois, G Force, Move In Time, Amazing Maria, Mondialiste and most recently Lord Glitters who added to his 2019 Queen Anne win with success in the 2021 Jebel Hatta at the age of eight.

Based at his purpose-built training facility on the 120 acre Willow Farm just outside of York, David has developed one of the top training facilities in the country and has added to his reputation for transforming the fortunes of horses from elsewhere by increasing the number of young horses in his care with over twenty 2yo winners sent out in 2021.
