Geoff Wragg (9 January 1930 – 15 September 2017) was a horse trainer who trained champion thoroughbred horses such as Teenoso and Pentire. He was the son of former jockey and trainer Harry Wragg, from whom he took over the licence at Abington Place, Newmarket in 1983. Wragg retired in 2008 after 25 years of training and sold Abington Place to Mohammed bin Khalifa Al Maktoum the following spring. He relocated to Yorkshire, the birthplace of his father. He died in 2017.
In his first season as a trainer Teenoso won The Derby under Lester Piggott.[citation needed] Other notable horses he trained include Arcadian Heights, Owington, First Island, First Trump, Pentire, and Cassandra Go. Owners he worked for included Anthony Oppenheimer.
Wragg died at Newmarket on 15 September 2017 at the age of 87.[1]
