Horses are the local passion. And that goes back to way before Coolmore was established. The Magnier family have been offering Ireland’s and the world’s most discerning breeders access to Champions for generations, employing quite a few of the world’s finest natural horseman in Ireland, the US and Australia.
The yard you’re looking at here is known, with ample justification, as the Home of Champions. It’s just outside Fethard, Co. Tipperary. Coolmore was founded by John Magnier, his father in law, local legend Vincent O'Brien, rated as the greatest Trainer in Britain and Ireland of the 20th century, and Robert Sangster. Coolmore is still led by John Magnier today.
