George Baker
With a lifelong passion for horseracing, George was granted a licence to train in early 2008 and trained his first winner in March of that year. George trained over one hundred winners from his original training base in Warwickshire before moving to Whitsbury in January 2011. George subsequently moved to the historic Manton Estate near Marlborough and now trains from their Barton Yard.
Commodore is the first horse that he has trained for Highclere although George’s involvement with Highclere goes back some way as his mother, Lally, is one of Highclere’s original and most long-standing owners.
