Yargi Racing Gets On The Bit With Prism
Husband and wife Ash Yargi and Amy Johnston are taking their class-leading training partnership to Prism. The highly experienced duo based at Mornington in Victoria are managing their communications and operations through the award-winning platform.
Both Ash and Amy have a strong passion for horses and are truly dedicated to the cause. Amy is the daughter of Fran Houlahan and Brian Johnston and the Granddaughter of arguably the greatest trainer of jumpers Australia has ever known, Hall of Famer, Jim Houlahan. She enjoyed a successful stint in show jumping as a child, becoming a Victorian show jumping champion by age 12. She eventually made the transition to training, moving to Europe to work for Willy Jarvis at Newmarket and Michael Halford at The Curragh.
Ash also hails from a family with a racing pedigree. His uncle, Baha Yargi, is a highly successful trainer in Turkey and trains a team of approximately 50 horses in Istanbul. Ash started his career riding trackwork for the highly successful Freedman Brothers and progressed through the ranks to Foreman and eventually the Assistant Trainer role. He had the pleasure of working with the likes of Makybe Diva, Mummify, Alinghi, Miss Andretti & Santa Ana Lane to name a few.
