BUILT ON PASSION, DRIVEN BY PERFORMANCE
PRE TRAINING
We provide a comprehensive range of training services, tailored to meet the individual requirements, capabilities and fitness objectives of each racehorse.
Our training programs can incorporate a variety of disciplines, including traditional trackwork, water walking, treadmill conditioning, flatwork and jumping.
Whether your horse requires a straightforward exercise regime or a more specialized and structured training program, we work closely to develop an approach that best suits their individual needs, ensuring their training is both appropriate and purposeful.
BREAKING IN
Breaking in is the first step in your yearling’s journey towards becoming a racehorse. Our program typically takes 4–6 weeks, depending on each horse’s individual temperament and ability to adapt.
We take a patient, professional and uncomplicated approach, ensuring every horse is given the time and confidence to develop at their own pace.
Our recent 2026 successes include Fireball, winner of the prestigious Inglis Millennium, and Spicy Martini, a contender in The Everest 2026 — achievements we are incredibly proud of.
SPELLING
We provide quality spelling and rehabilitation services, offering horses a safe and comfortable environment to rest, recover and rejuvenate.
From young weanlings to racehorses requiring specialised care, including softer paddocks for tendon injuries, we cater to each horse’s individual needs.
We pride ourselves on providing exceptional care and attention, with recent visitors including Birdman, winner of the prestigious Group 1 Champion Stakes.
Your horse’s wellbeing is always our priority.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
"The care and attention to detail that Pete, Michelle and the whole team at Kolora put into every single horse is quite simply second to none. The horses leave Kolora exceptionally well educated and in tremendous health and condition, both of which are vital in order for them to hit the ground running when they get to their trainers."
- James Harron Bloodstock
“Peter McMahon is a world class equestrian who’s made the transition to breaking in & pre training of racehorses. His professionalism and inherent understanding of the horse is very apparent in the thorough job that Kolora does on all our youngsters. We’ve used Peter and the team extensively over the last 12 years.”
- Proven Thoroughbreds (Jamie Walter)
"I wish Kolora had a Victorian base. All my Magic Millions yearlings go there for breaking and pre training. The end product is always perfect. Peter McMahon is meticulous in the process with outstanding facilities to utilise."
- Mick Price Racing & Breeding
