Rod Millman Racing
The Paddocks Kentisbeare
Rod Millman Racing is based at The Paddocks in Kentisbeare, Devon overlooking the Culm Valley. The yard is hidden away in peaceful rolling countryside perfect for training racehorses and keeping them happy.
Rod, his wife Louise and sons Patrick and James are very hands on with all of their charges. Each horse is treated as an individual. Yearlings are given careful attention so as not to spoil their interest in racing and older horses find new form after time in the lush paddocks that provide turn out.
This is a versatile yard training precocious two-year olds to 4 mile chasers.
Sergeant Cecil was the stable star for several seasons and has his own tribute website. For Rod, and the family stable, Sergeant Cecil was a horse of a lifetime.
Rod has a talent for sweetening up horses that have lost their sparkle and old Whitbarrow is just one who returned to him and continued to win races. He has an instinctive feeling for his charges and you can spot the closeness he and his staff have with the horses.
In one paddock is old Lord Kintyre who made a difference to them, winning the Newbury Weatherbys Supersprint in 1997 when the yard was small. He has been given a happy retirement here and Rod's wife Louise rides and shows him. He hardly looks a day older than when he was racing.
