Arthur Moore learned his trade from his highly-successful trainer father, Dan. Dan was perhaps best known as the trainer of L'Escargot who won the Cheltenham Gold Cup in both 1970 and 1971, as well as the 1975 Aintree Grand National. At that time, Arthur was successfully exhibiting his talents in the saddle with notable wins coming on King's Sprite in the Irish Grand National in 1971. He has enjoyed no shortage of success in his lengthy training career and was Champion National Hunt Trainer in the 1991/1992 season.
