Pat was the most successful jockey of his generation in Britain. The 11 times champion won every Classic in England and Ireland and achieved a record 29 centuries. He is the second winning-most jockey in English racing history behind Sir Gordon Richards.

He lives and breathes horses and after 35 years in the saddle has taken over the reins as a trainer. "I was very lucky to have had a marvellous career as a jockey, riding all round the world. If I achieve as a trainer, half of what I achieved as a jockey, I'll be very happy".

Pat's younger brother Paul has ridden over 1500 winners in a career spanning 30 years. His many Group successes include two July Cups and a Lockinge while his victories worldwide include the German 2000 Guineas and St Leger.

Having grown up with horses all his life, he has a wealth of knowledge and experience. As Assistant Trainer, he is Pat's right hand man and plays a key hands-on role in the feeding and welfare of the horses. He rides out each morning and will continue to race ride professionally.

While he will ride some of the horses in their races, he has not been retained and Pat will continue to use other jockeys.

Simon has fifteen years experience in the management of racehorse syndication and co-founded Pat Eddery Racing.

As Racing Manager, he liaises closely with owners and keeps them up-to-date with what’s going on via horse reports and the web site. Using his communication skills and personal contacts he has developed within the racing industry, he is also responsible for media and public relations.

"Keeping owners informed on a regular basis is vital. It enables them to gain so much more out of their ownership experience. Communication is crucial and I will ensure owners and the press are fully aware of the latest developments at Pat Eddery Racing".

At thirty-something, Julia is the youngest and newest member of the team and is Racing Secretary at Musk Hill. She is responsible for race entries and declarations and fulfils all the usual administrative and secretarial requirements of a racing yard as well as organising social functions for Pat Eddery Racing.

Julia has her own horse and competes in affiliated show jumping while she is also an accomplished equine artist.
