More about this scene
Wootton ran his stables at Treadwell House, off Downs Road. He had come to Epsom in 1906 when he was a boy, arriving with his father Richard from Australia. Richard Wootton soon came to head the Trainers' Championship, while Stanley was best known as a tutor of jockeys. The Wootton Academy, as it was called, stressed 'confidence, obedience, cleanliness', as well as corporal punishment and a ban on girlfriends. It seems to have worked; one Treadwell House graduate, Charlie Smirke, went on to win four Derbies.
