Hello, I’m Champion National Hunt Horseracing Trainer Paul Nicholls I’d like to personally thank you for taking the time to visit our website which offers you the chance to find out more about myself, my staff and most importantly of all the horses I currently have in training. Keep up to date on my wins here.   Our home is at Manor Farm Stables, located in Ditcheat, set in one of the most picturesque parts of the United Kingdom deep in the heart of the West Country in Somerset. With names such as Kauto Star, Big Buck’s, Denman and Master Minded as well as many other multiple Cheltenham Festival and Grade One winners, our team currently set the standard for Jump racing success.  Our reputation for discovering and nurturing the best young equine talent into Champion Racehorses speaks for itself over the past two decades. All of us here at Paul Nicholls Racing are extremely honoured and proud to handle the most powerful yard of National Hunt horses in the country.

Photography courtesy of We regularly receive requests from the racing and general public with regards to viewing the horses and holding Open Days here at Ditcheat. Unfortunately due to our location and the layout of the stables it has proved very difficult in the past to provide the necessary stewarding, welfare and refreshment facilities as well as emergency vehicle allocation to support the high demand for these occasions.  Therefore regretfully we do not intend to hold any Open days in the near future. Following a recent review of the season I have taken some time to consider the merit of providing stable tours throughout the course of the forthcoming season and the impact that they have had on the stables this year.  Unfortunately after much discussion and consideration we have decided to withdraw the offer of public visits to the yard with immediate effect.  This is largely down to two main reasons; firstly the current high demand for these visits is causing both administrative and logistical problems with a massive number of requests (up to an estimated three years currently).  Secondly, the numbers of people on site whilst the yard is working is also proving uncomfortable both in terms of distraction and with regards to the risk of infection being transferred between horses, a situation which I'm sure you can appreciate is not acceptable to our owners. I can only apologise for bringing this news to all those wishing to visit us including all of the people on the waiting list for season 2012-2013, however I'm sure as horse racing enthusiasts, all will fully understand the dilemma we find ourselves in especially with a potentially even bigger battle on the cards for the Trainers Championship next season.
