Henry de Bromhead is one of Ireland's Leading Trainers. He specialises in training horses for National Hunt racing. He has trained a number of Group 1 winners including Sizing John and Honeysuckle, and is based at stables in Knockeen, County Waterford. There are three main gallops at Knockeen - a six furlong uphill wood chip gallop, a three furlong sand gallop and a four furlong uphill grass gallop. Jumping is the name of the game and the indoor school arena is a major part of the schooling process. We loose school our horses in the arena every morning, with a hurdle and an easyfix fence on either side, the objective being to get them to think for themselves, see their own strides and gain confidence in their own jumping ability. The outdoor schooling area consists of four lines of hurdles and fences. We use the schooling ground in final preparation before races.
