Sir Alex Ferguson CBE
Paul Nicholls has transformed the landscape of jump racing in Great Britain. Since starting out in 1991 with just eight horses, he has won all the major races, usually multiple times, and is on the cusp of becoming the winning-most trainer ever when he reaches the 4000 mark.
Based from his famous Ditcheat base in Somerset, his relentless pursuit of winners is evident in his consistent performance, maintaining a strike rate of 20% or more for the past 25 years.
Paul Nicholls’ dedication to the sport was recognised in 2020 when he was awarded an OBE for his services to horse racing.
