About Us

Suzzanne trained in Newmarket at the British Racing School. She was apprenticed to Nigel Tinkler and Neville Bycroft.  She became head lass for Andy Turnell where she helped to train the successful Class 1 winner Blue Bejan. Then, as assistant trainer for Neville Bycroft, she helped to train Danum Dancer, Winner of the Class 1 Totepool Two-Year- Old trophy. As an apprentice jockey Suzzanne had ridden 17 winners when, after a serious injury at Recar, she took up training in her own yard at Cheesecake Hill.

Aaron rides out and helps with training of all our horses. As an amateur jockey he rode the first winner for Newstart Yard, riding Stamp Duty at Wolverhampton in February 2012. Aaron also rides out for other local yards.

Kate joins us for race meetings, preparing the horses and collecting the saddles. She enjoys leading the horse and jockey into the winners enclosure after the race!

Pat, a former music teacher in schools, often tries to keep in tune with our accounts and paper work. Pat enjoys giving our yard the tidy blooming appearance that welcomes our visitors.

Peter was our Yard Man, handy man and true supporter. He could often be seen tidying up around the yard and making plans for more improvements. He would usually been seen at the races, meeting with owners in the parade ring. He played a major role in the running and daily routine of Newstart Racing.

We will never walk alone

Pete, Suzzanne's dad, who played a major role in the running and daily routine of Newstart Yard, sadly passed away at home in October 2017.  We will carry on with his work around the yards, just as he would wish.  We aim to work alongside all the things and ways he has created and developed, making things the best they can be for the home and Newstart Racing. Pete's spirit will forever be with us around the yards and he will always be cheering on the winners throughout our racing adventures.
