Trainer Sir Henry Cecil passed away on Tuesday 11th June 2013 following a long illness.
A perfect gentleman in the truest sense of the word, he took the,
deserved, plaudits with humility and took the knock-backs with dignity.
There
won't be another trainer like him, especially in the training of
fillies, although his greatest horse was, of course, a colt.
How fitting a tribute it would be, if the offspring of Frankle and Midday were to be a colt, that he be named Sir Henry.
Blighted
by ill health in his latter years I cannot help but think Frankel gave
him the extra incentive to fight on the last couple of years.
At last he is now at peace, RIP an true gentleman.
