John Best
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Best is a British horse racing trainer.
He has been training racehorses in Kent, England for over ten years. He began his career riding and training point-to-point and hunter-chasers before taking out his National Hunt license in 1997 and his flat racing license in 1999. He is known for his amusingly-named Hucking Horses syndicate, named for the location of his training yard at Scragged Oak Farm in the village of Hucking, near Maidstone.
[edit] Notable horses
John trained the pony-sized filly Rising Cross to win the Group Two Park Hill Stakes at York in 2006. Rising Cross also placed in two Classics, the English Oaks and Irish Oaks.
Hurricane Spirit is a three-year-old colt whom John is aiming at the 2007 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket Racecourse.
