Backing the winning horse

Set in the depths of the Orne Valley in South Normandy, France lies EMLASA Farm; a purpose built equestrian property for the training of thoroughbred racehorses.

The farm has a 300 year history of successful breeding until it was recently purchased by it’s current owners Eoghan and Melissa O’Neill and their young family. More about the farm »

Why France?

We are currently in the early part of our racing season here in France which will be our first full season, having only moved from the UK last July.

Apart from the fabulous facilities that EMLASA provides France is the world leader in terms of prize money which horses can earn by racing here, infact it is 56% better than the UK for example.
