Niall Brennan Stables

Success is no accident is Niall Brennan’s motto — it embodies his philosophy of life.

NIALL BRENNAN STABLES is a world-class Thoroughbred training facility in Ocala, Florida focusing on the development of happy, healthy equine athletes.

Located on lush, rich land decorated with beautiful old oak trees, Niall Brennan Stables has more than 100 acres of turn-out paddocks and barns accommodating up to 130 horses.

The farm utilizes a three-quarter-mile dirt track with a padded four-stall starting gate, a six-furlong rolling turf course, a jogging track, three European walkers, six-round pens, and a state-of-the-art Aquaciser. We make use of the latest in modern veterinary technology, including massage, laser, magnetic, and hydrotherapy.

This is an opportunity to watch a training PRO in action. We will watch Niall and his training team put his chosen thoroughbreds through their paces for upcoming races. You will see an organization that functions like a well-oiled machine. We meet early because training starts early. You’ll meet members of the team — esp the furry friends.

Niall Brennan is a successful jockey who won his first race at the age of 16 in his native Ireland. He soon discovered his special talents as a trainer and traveled around the world working at tracks and farms in New Zealand, Australia, California, and Kentucky. He established Niall Brennan Stables in 1989 in Ocala, Florida.
