About Us

Byerley Park is a public training facility located in rural South Auckland. It is home to eight trainers, with around 130 horses worked on the track each morning.

The breeding operation "Chesterfields" is located across the road from the training track and is where broodmares, foals, yearlings and spellers are cared for in an idyllic setting.

Byerley Park is also home to the NZ Equine Academy, providing education and career pathways for those wanting to secure a successful future in the thoroughbred industry.
