Situated in glorious countryside just north of Carlisle near the Borders town of Langholm, we are predominantly a National Hunt yard who have enjoyed considerable success since James Ewart took out a training licence in 2004. We are well located to reach all the northern tracks as well as those further south when the opportunity arises.

We have built up a promising string of horses and our experienced team pride themselves on being able to give each horse the individual attention required to bring out the very best in them. With excellent contacts in France, Ireland and England most of our horses are purchased as two- or three-year-olds and then brought on gradually to reach their full potential. Each year the quality of the horses has improved and currently we have some very interesting prospects.

The yard is situated on the 500 hectare Craig Farm where we have outstanding facilities which we are always striving to improve. There are currently sand, grass and Tapeta gallops as well as a 10 horse Monarch Horse Walker. In addition, we have access to miles of forestry tracks.

James Ewart Racing Ltd was founded in 2004 as a Flat and National Hunt racing yard: initially buying and selling French horses to U.K. owners whilst establishing training facilities. Amongst his early purchases were Dark Ben and My Way de Solzen. James has particularly strong links with France resulting in a high proportion of French horses in the yard but has also had great success with Irish and English horses. He has trained multiple Bumper, Hurdle and Chase winners with some horses winning 12 times and he is always striving to improve the quality of his string.
