About Clive Cox
From a farming background in Somerset, Clive had a successful career as a NH Jockey and rode nearly 100 winners.
He was Assistant Trainer to Mikey Heaton Ellis and took over the licence at Barbury Castle when Mikey died in 1999.
In May 2000 Clive, Tina and their daughters Lucy and Emily moved to John Francome’s picturesque Beechdown Stables yard on the edge of Lambourn Downs. Successes on the track soon followed and the numbers of winners per season have increased every year. Bargain buy, Online Investor, owned by Steve Lansdown, was narrowly pipped in the £100,000 Super Sprint and consistent handicapper, Ionian Spring were two of the first horses that put Clive on the map and the winners have continued on an upward spiral ever since. Under Clive's expert care, New Seeker climbed through the ranks winning big handicaps to Listed success.
