Welcome to jeddokeefferacing.co.uk, the website for the thriving Middleham trainer.

Jedd was brought up in Wetherby, West Yorkshire and was born into racing with his father Eddie having been a jockey and a trainer.

After gaining a degree in Russian Language and Soviet Studies, Jedd was enticed back into the sport of kings. He completed a year-long course in horse management at Cambridgeshire Agricultural College, graduating with distinction.

Jedd’s career in racing began as pupil-assistant to Micky Hammond in Middleham. Soon promoted to travelling head lad for the yard, he remained in that role for six years before being appointed assistant trainer for two.

At the same time Jedd and wife Andrea were running a livery yard and in 2000 he decided to take out a training licence himself.

Starting with the minimum of three horses, Jedd hit the ground running with his first runner Lullaby finishing second at Chester.

Since then Jedd’s business has gradually expanded as his reputation grows with the success of his operation.

A family-run and owner-friendly yard, Jedd has enjoyed great success on the Flat and in National Hunt races over recent seasons.

While eager to expand his business further, Jedd is aware that his clients need to enjoy their racing and have a good relationship with their trainer. He also wants them to have fun and be rewarded with success.

Jedd is backed by a dedicated team, headed by his wife Andrea, and his is an ideal yard for owners big or small. If you want to own a horse outright, form or join one of the existing successful syndicates, Jedd O’Keeffe is the trainer for you.

Based in the heart of the stunning Yorkshire Dales at historic Middleham, Jedd O’Keeffe offers exceptional value for money and a service second to none.
