Passed away today.
One of the greats of the English turf.

Ah yes, Henry Cecil. At first i thought you were clearing your throat

Sir Henry Cecil. One of the sport's, and the country's true gentlemen and a legend. usually this is when the mud starts flying but I doubt anyone has anything bad to say about him. How fitting that a great life's work provided him with such a fantastic reward in the shape of Frankel. RIP

Quite moving listening to many of the tributes paid to him today.
Amazing story how he was virtually broken when Sheikh Mohammed removed all his main ammunition but returned like a phoenix from the ashes to reach such glorious heady heights once again.
Incredible story.

Yes, a legend of the sport.

RIP Sir Henry.
