One of Australia's most respected horsemen, with 11 Group 1 winners and more than 1,300 wins across a career built in Western Australia and Victoria. A patient, old-school operator now based at Barwon Heads — the kind of genuine horseman you want shaping your next galloper.
Lindsey Smith is one of Australia's most accomplished and admired trainers, a Western Australian by trade who has prepared 11 Group 1 winners and more than 1,300 winners since saddling his first in 1993.
An apprentice jockey at 14, Smith learned his craft under horsemen including Tommy Hughes and Queensland mentor Henry Davis before setting up on his own. His partnership with WA owner Bob Peters delivered some of the state's best gallopers — among them Old Comrade, who famously beat the champion Northerly in the 2002 Group 1 Australian Cup at Flemington.
Smith's Group 1 honour roll includes dual top-level winner Scales Of Justice, multiple Group 1 winner Black Heart Bart, Tuvalu and Victoria Derby winner Plastered. After a long, successful run between Perth and a Warrnambool satellite, he relocated to Barwon Heads, sharing the state-of-the-art Geelong-region facilities of fellow trainer Danny O'Brien.
Eleven Group 1 winners and 82 Stakes winners over the journey.
More than 1,300 career wins at a strong winning strike-rate.
Personal updates, stable visits, and transparent communication on every horse.
Now based at Barwon Heads alongside Danny O'Brien's stable.
Pulling the latest from the BBT registry.
No horses are open with this stable right now — new BBT syndicates list regularly.
A selection of other horses currently in the BBT registry across our trainer network.
Group 1 Memsie Stakes — Caulfield. A second top-level win for the tough campaigner nicknamed "Chopper".
Group 1 Australian Cup — Flemington, downing the champion Northerly in one of the great WA upsets.
Group 1 Victoria Derby — Flemington, a Classic to underline Smith's Melbourne credentials.
The level of communication and overall engagement with the syndication members are exceptional.
