The Trainer: ANNABEL NEASHAM

In 2016, Annabel took up the opportunity to travel to Australia, for what was meant to be a working holiday. She never left, and now can’t imagine being anywhere else.

Annabel started training, in her own right, in August 2020 and trained her first Group 1 winner Mo’unga in the Rosehill Guineas. Annabel accomplished this in under 8 months of training.

The stable has now achieved five Group 1’s, two Group 2’s and 2 listed wins.

During her two years in charge of Ciaron Maher’s Sydney stable, Annabel savoured several major victories and assisted in guiding the careers of some exceptionally talented horses which resulted in winners including Dubious, Away Game, Prague, Cellsabeel and Etah James.

Hawkes once said, “climbing the mountain and getting to the top is difficult, but staying there is much harder.” “Racing is so competitive these days. There are a lot of good trainers and it takes a lot of hard work, behind the scenes, to stay there and not start sliding down the other side.”
