Michael Costa Racing, based out of the beautiful Gold Coast, is fast becoming famous for its innovative training methods, dedication to horse welfare and its fresh and dynamic emphasis on the client experience. Michael Costa Racing treats each racehorse as an individual, an elite ‘equine athlete’. And each owner becomes part of the extended family.

Since Michael relocated the Michael Costa Racing stable from Sydney to the Gold Coast in 2016, he has established one of the leading stables in Queensland from only a boutique sized team of horses.

In the 2019/2020 season, Michael Costa Racing was crowned in the top 5 winning strike rates in the country and we are on target to break our winning record for the next racing season.

Our horse has gone from a non-winner to taking out his first race within three starts with Michael Costa Racing. This guy will be the next big thing in racing and I encourage everyone to jump on board now.

Mathew Taylor, Horse owner

The Michael Costa Racing team have helped syndicate a range of our passed in horses from the sales giving our breeders another option for selling. Every horse we have sent to Michael returns to the stud for spelling in immaculate condition. Michael has a very high attention to detail and explains each horses idiosyncrasies to the finest detail.
