2018-present Daniel & Claire Kubler
Daniel Kubler, born circa 1983, was educated at Royal High Wycombe Grammar School before attending the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester in 2003. He graduated with a BSc in International Equine and Agricultural Management and, with the long-term aim of becoming a racehorse trainer, he endeavoured to gain experience both in this country and abroad, including spells with Gai Waterhouse in Australia and Francois Doumen in France. He acted as pupil assistant to Roger Charlton at Beckhampton Stables, Marlborough between 2007 and 2009, after which he spent 3 months as sales assistant at John Warren Bloodstock. In January 2010 he was presented with an opportunity to act as assistant trainer to the American Ben Cecil at his Southern California stables, returning to the UK in March 2011. He successfully applied for a trainer's licence in 2011 and launched his training career at High View Stables on Folly Road, Lambourn. Claire Kubler benefitted from being around horses from an early age, growing up on her parent's stud farm before reading Natural Sciences at Cambridge. She gained experience with Patrick Gallagher in California, John Warren Bloodstock and at Jeremy Noseda's Shalfleet Stables, Newmarket. Daniel and Claire got married on Saturday 12th May 2012 and, at this point in time, the Jockey Club did not allow joint ownership of the trainer's licence, so Daniel continued with the licence. This was rectified in May 2020 when the Jockey Club modernised their rules to enable Daniel and Claire to jointly own the licence for Kubler Racing. Between 2012 and 2018 Spin Again and Il Paparazzi were money-spinners, but in 2018 the pair moved to Sarsen Farm Stables in Upper Lambourn, transforming a tired, dilapidated old farm into a highly successful stable. Although Daniel's name was on the trainers licence in 2019, Chitra managed to win a number of minor handicaps at Salisbury and Lingfield for Mr & Mrs G Middlebrook, but in May 2020 Claire's name was added to the licence. the appropriatley named Don't tell Claire won handicaps at Sandown, Newcastle and Nottingham, while Helm Rock and Percy's Lad continued to win their fair share of handicaps.

Although they have not won too many high-profile races to date, arguably Outgate is their best, and most prolific winner, and it is only a matter of time before the pair train Listed and Group winners.
