Figures from across the sport of Flat racing gathered in Ely Cathedral on Monday afternoon to celebrate the life of Sir Henry Cecil.
The huge Gothic structure, which looms over the Fens, was a building Cecil admired and it was chosen by his widow, Lady Jane, as a fitting venue for his remembrance.
The legendary trainer died after a long and dignified battle against cancer on June 11 and had a private family funeral at St Agnes Church in Newmarket. His body was laid to rest at his ancestral seat of Crathes Castle in Aberdeenshire.

A fitting tribute to a great man.
