SIR HENRY CECIL, one of the most influential and successful racehorse trainers of all time, has died. He was 70.

The trainer prepared 25 British Classic winners and reached arguably the pinnacle of his career with his flawless handling of Frankel, who he guided to a perfect record of 14 wins from 14 races.
Its a very sad day to hear of the passing of one of the true giants of horse racing who was also a true gentleman as well.

RIP Henry
