Sarah Buckley

Sarah Buckley was born on 27th February 1968 in Kilve, Somerset. Sarah has worked for us since 1987 but had good training before she joined our yard having worked for John Thorne, and with the horse Spartan Missile.

Sarah married Eddie, our head lad in 1995 and they have three children: Kieren, Tom, and Finn.

Sarah's favourite horse was Honest Word, although the best horse she has ever looked after was Carvills Hill - Chester Barnes thinks he is probably the best we have ever trained. Sarah's best moment in racing was when she went to America with Regal Ambition. Having flown to New York they spent thirty-six hours on a horsebox to Kentucky, and although the horse was unplaced they had a good time and were well looked after by the Americans.

Sarah enjoys shopping in her spare time and holidaying to her father's villa in Spain.
