Firmly established as one of Britain’s leading trainers, Kevin started from scratch from his stables in North Yorkshire in 1998. He moved rapidly through the training ranks and his skill lies in unearthing top performing juveniles and breathing new life into horses that have lost their way elsewhere. Kevin has saddled many Listed and/or Group winning two-year-olds and has achieved Group 1 winning success with Amadeus Wolf (Middle Park Stakes), Palace Episode (Racing Post Trophy) and Desert Lord (Prix de L’Abbaye de Longchamp). In 2011 he enjoyed his best season numerically with 133 winners.
