Len Lungo is a Scottish champion race horse trainer and former jockey. Born 1950. Len Lungo is based at Hetland Hill stables in Dumfriesshire overlooking the Solway Firth.[1] In 2001 Len Lungo's work was impacted due to government placed restrictions regarding animals in light of the foot and mouth disaster.[2] Len Lungo broke the late Ken Oliver's Scottish record for the most wins in a National Hunt season. Lungo extended that record again in subsequent years setting a new personal best of 63 winners in season 2002-3. In the two seasons following, the number of winners dropped to 47 and 56, still comfortably ahead of any other Scottish trainer but disappointing by the high standards he sets himself.[3] As of June 2009 it has been reported by the Elite Racing Club that Len is "cutting back his training interests" with a view to letting out the train facilities at Carrutherstown. Away from horsesLen Lungo is a fan of Dumfries football club Queen of the South.[4][5] References1. ^Hetland Hill Stables {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080727011306/http://www.lenlungo.com/index.htm |date=2008-07-27 }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Lungo, Len}}2. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20121021020853/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-5143517.html Racing: Lungo's rising talent forced to wait their turn Foot-and-mouth and winter weather halt trainer on brink of new honours.
