WELCOME TO
TODD SMART RACING
After learning his craft with Australia’s leading training and breeding operators including John O’Shea, Colin Little and Lloyd Williams’ Hudson Conway Racing, Todd became a trainer in his own right during the 2014/2015 racing season.
Hailing from Gundagai, Todd spent most of his formative years working with horses including as a stablehand with David Blundell. In his spare time Todd loved camp drafting, catching wild brumbies and bull riding.
Colin Little once described Todd as a “gun horseman” and after recognising his hard work ethic and horsemanship promptly appointed him as assistant trainer for Lord Lodge.
