Eric Musgrove
Eric Musgrove has been Australia’s leading jumps trainer for many years with a record that includes multiple wins in feature races in Victoria, South Australia and even New South Wales and Japan.
Jumps Racing had been a major part of his life for nearly four decades and he has maintained a passion and focus that is evidenced by his extraordinary and continuous success.
He is recognised as the country’s number one authority on Jumps Racing and is often sought after for his advice and guidance which he is only too willing to pass on.
He is now living the dream at Coronet Bay.
The 200 acres of undulating paddocks boasts meticulously maintained training tracks, including a 1000 metre elevated straight gallop track and a 2100 metre sand track, 50 stables, 80 foot 10 horse walker and a 50 metre straight pool. The Park that also has a private beach access, is named after his champion Karasi. The mighty steeplechaser won 3 International Group 1 Nakayama Grand Jumps in Japan over 3 consecutive years. Karasi was inducted into the Australian Racing Hall of Fame in 2018 making history as only the second jumper to receive this accolade.
Eric Musgrove was the trainer of Karasi
Winner Nakayama Grand Jump, Japan – 2005, 2006 and 2007
Karasi has won the most prizemoney of any steeplechaser in the world and won the Nakayama Grand Jump three years in a row in Japan, a feat that will probably never be repeated.
