Eve is a leading racehorse trainer, based on the Berkshire downs high above the village of Blewbury. ​The historic Woodway Stables boast 200 acres of untouched turf downland gallops and a seven furlong all weather gallop making it an ideal location for horses to thrive and winners to be trained.

HISTORY

The Johnson Houghton family are steeped in racing history. 

Eve is the daughter of Fulke Johnson Houghton who trained at Woodway for over 40 years, having taken over from his mother Helen who in turn had taken over from her husband, Gordon.

Eve is following in her family's footsteps and has the experience to succeed at the very top. Having worked in London Eve returned to Lambourn and worked for Henry Ponsonby managing his successful racing syndicates.
