A New Zealand Racing Powerhouse Since 1961, based in Matamata, NZ.

Established in 1961 by Hall of Fame trainer Dave O’Sullivan, Wexford Stables is one of the most iconic names in New Zealand racing history. Today, the legacy continues under the leadership of Lance O’Sullivan ONZM and Andrew Scott.

Group 1 New Zealand Oaks

Ohope Wins A Class Above!

Ohope Wins captures the Group 1 New Zealand Oaks in dominant fashion - and we couldn’t be prouder.

She’s now made it three Group wins in succession, sweeping through the Gr.2 Sir Patrick Hogan Stakes, the Gr.2 David & Karyn Ellis Fillies Classic, and stepping up again to conquer at elite level.

This victory also secures New Zealand Bloodstock’s Filly of the Year title - a milestone that echoes Wexford’s success with Molly Bloom just two seasons prior.
