David Loder (born 26 January 1964 in Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire, England) is a retired trainer of Thoroughbred racehorses.
David Loder is the son of Simon Loder, of the family of Loder Baronets, by Sandra Fleming, a descendant of Robert Fleming (financier). He was educated at Eton College.
He began his professional career at Newmarket Racecourse in 1992 and trained for thirteen years before retiring in 2005.
He is known for anticipating that Dubai Millennium would become a star horse.
Loder retired after suffering from a virus that prevented him from training as well as he had previously.
Famous quotes containing the word david:
“Most men would feel shame if caught preparing with their own hands precisely such a dinner, whether of animal or vegetable food, as is every day prepared for them by others. Yet till this is otherwise we are not civilized, and, if gentlemen and ladies, are not true men and women. This certainly suggests what change is to be made.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
