25.01.2022 Great to get wins recently with the progressive Yankee Diva and the improving California Sunset. Read more about them here >> http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//patience-pays-with-in-

22.01.2022 FRIDAY TRIVIA! The Blackiston Racing stable has been in a rich vein of form over the last 6 weeks, with a winning strike rate over 30%. How many Group 1 wins ha...s Nigel Blackiston achieved as a trainer, and can you name the horses that won? Don't forget we are racing this Sunday on the Synthetic track! Congratulations to BTC member, Tom Nickeas who won our bistro meal voucher by sharing a lovely photo of his granddaughter enjoying the races. Don't miss out on your opportunity Sunday!

22.01.2022 Treadmills are a fantastic tool we use to add variety to our training programs. Here's how we put it to use.

22.01.2022 We often say horses need time to mature. Dreams And Schemes is a great example. As a 3YO, he was: 5-0:0:0. Returning after that break and allowing him to mature and develop, his record is 5-3:1:0. Great for Ross Wilkinson to have a nice, in form horse.

22.01.2022 Six wins in the past four weeks. Three bred by clients and three purchased as yearlings. Really pleasing for owners and staff. Hoping we can continue the stable’s form in coming weeks.

21.01.2022 We love the hill track at Ballarat - it's quickly become a key training tool and our horses love the variety.

21.01.2022 Pure Exceleration has won his 10th and 11th starts of his campaign. Being able to train with variety like this at Ballarat is a key reason why. He's such a happy, healthy horse and great to have around.

19.01.2022 We take great pride in our hands on approach to training. Danbana, who won for the fourth time today @EchucaRaceClub is thriving as a 6YO and this is a key reason why. He's the star of this video.

18.01.2022 Great to get Translator back in the winners stall at Sandown today. it was Craig Williams at his best! Look forward to seeing what's in store for this son of Helmet we purchased at Inglis Premier a few years ago - already a winner of $170k. http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//translator-back-a-winn

18.01.2022 I've really enjoyed being out Inglis trying to find our stables next good horse. If you want to be a part of it we'd love to have you onboard. http://bit.ly/JoinOurStable

16.01.2022 The colours of Ian Lewis and connections went one better today with Shock Shock winning at Ballarat, following Diaquin’s fast-closing second at Flemington yesterday. Stepping up to a more suitable distance allowed Shock Shock to position nicely in the run under Will Price. It was great to see her knuckle down in the final 200m to score in the Hygain Winners Choice Hcp for connections. Shock Shock is raced on lease from John Thompson and Rich Hill Stud, being a daughter of their resident stallion Shocking and a half-sister to Group-winner Polzeath.

16.01.2022 We've been at the Ballarat Turf Club for just over a year and are loving it as winter sets in. The horses are loving it just as much.

16.01.2022 California Sunset has overcome a few challenges in his career to date. Owner/breeder Ross Wilkinson thoroughly deserved today's win at Horsham. The Super VOBIS bonus was a further reward for Ross' long-term support of Victorian racing. Thanks to Will Price for the well-rated ride leading all the way. Will has been working hard and closely with several stables at Ballarat, including ours, and his career is progressing well. Just like California Sunset.

15.01.2022 It is no secret in racing how important staff are to the success of an operation. We're really pleased to introduce Mark Dennehy, our foreman.

14.01.2022 Delighted with Diaquin’s performance today to place 2nd at Flemington. Once she learns how to get into the race earlier, instead of just the final furlong, she can soon convert these 2nds into wins.

14.01.2022 I'm quite proud of the hands on approach we take to training. It has served me well in the past and is going very well with the facilities at Ballarat Turf Club at Sportsbet-Ballarat.

14.01.2022 Thrilled to get consecutive wins with Pure Exceleration at Ballarat today. 2000m very much his caper! Great ride by Neil Farley. Read more here > http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//pure-exceleration-wins

14.01.2022 It's been great to see racing adapt to the difficult times with COVID-19. We're trying to keep the experience the same

12.01.2022 It was a great result to win with Diaquin at Bendigo on Sunday, aided a superbly timed ride by Craig Williams. She now heads to the Rivette Series final for fillies at Flemington on Saturday week. http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//2020/consistent-diaquin

11.01.2022 We were thrilled to add to our stable at the Inglis Premier sale recently. Here is our approach and what we look for in the yearlings. If you want to look more about our purchases, click here >> http://www.blackistonracing.com.au/racehorse-ownership

10.01.2022 Translator has now put together two impressive wins to start a promising campaign. He now heads to the lucrative #VOBIS Mahogany Stayers series. http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//2020/tougher-translator

10.01.2022 It was great to get a win with Inkerman Road for Ross Wilkinson at the Cranbourne Turf Club. Especially given it was a race named in the honour of Shane Pattison. Read >> http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//a-cranbourne-win-dedic

08.01.2022 In his first racing prep, Dreams And Schemes' record was: 5-0:0:0. His second preparation his record is: 5-3:1:0. Time and patience could be the making of this horse!... http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//patience-pays-in-dream

06.01.2022 It was really pleasing to get another win with King of Vandals at Sportsbet-Ballarat on Sunday on the synthetic track. His record now progresses to three wins and he certainly has the capability to continue winning his fair share of races.

06.01.2022 It was great to get another win with Protection Money at Sandown, the third win of his campaign. Read >> https://bit.ly/30QZECl

06.01.2022 Two winners in a week for great client and friend Ross Wilkinson, whose mating plans continue to deliver. Both ridden by emerging apprentice Will Price. http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//two-in-a-week-for-ross

05.01.2022 "While it is sad to farewell these great mares, it is the ones like them that make the racing game so special." We are saddened to hear of the passing of Let's Make Adeal and send condolences to Arrowfield Stud. Read more here > http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//we-made-some-great-mem

04.01.2022 Great to get a win today with Pure Exceleration at Tatura. He's such a beautiful horse. Read more here >> http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//pure-exceleration-step

04.01.2022 When it rains, it pours and while there has been a lot of rain about recently, the stable is enjoying a fruitful Autumn with eight wins in the past few weeks. On Sunday at our home ground of Ballarat, it was great to have ACCORDINGLY return to the races as a winner first up. Then today, it was very pleasing to take SAILORS FALLS to Swan Hill and get another win. ... Read all about it online.

03.01.2022 Really pleased with Diaquin’s performance today to run 2nd at Geelong. Posted wide much of the way and made a good contest with the eventual winner. This grey daughter of Waikato Stud’s Sacred Falls, is on the up.

01.01.2022 Always a great thrill to train a winner for Ross Wilkinson. Dreams And Schemes broke his maiden today at Kyneton, becoming another in a long line of winners from his family. Read more > http://www.blackistonracing.com.au//dreaming-and-scheming-
