Wayne Nichols Racing
Based at scenic Goorambat, Wayne Nichols Racing Stables provides a relaxed rural atmosphere that allows horses to be horses whilst being a comfortable distance from all Melbourne metropolitan and major provincial tracks.
A fierce competitor in all facets of life, Wayne Nichols has succeeded by utilising a mix of patience, hard work and luck.
His passion for racing and horses is one he freely shares with his owners, some of whom have been with the stable since its inception almost twenty six years ago.
