Louise Allan

Based, since 2018, at Marlborough House Stables on the Old Station Road in the heart of Newmarket, Suffolk, Louise Allan has held as training licence, in her own right, since 2011. Brought up on the family farm at Thorney, near Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, Allan graduated from the fields of pony club, hunting and showjumping to become a successful amateur jockey, in point-to-points and under Flat and National Rules. Indeed, she continued to ride work, first for local trainer Pam Sly, to she was assistant, and later for David Elsworth, in Newmarket, while she trained a small string of point-to-pointers at Thornley and at Egerton Stud, respectively, before taking out full training licence.

Very much a ‘hands on’ trainer, who rides out every day, Allan holds a dual-purpose licence, but winners for what is, after all, one of the smallest yards in Newmarket, have been few and far between. In fact, since the start of the 2017/18 National Hunt season, she has trained just a single winner in that sphere, from 74 runners, and just eight winners on the Flat, from 165 runners. At the time of writing, in the current Flat and National Hunt seasons, she is 0-5 in each, and has amassed just £4,021 in place money.
