    Pat had huge respect for Prince Khalid Abdullah and I know he considered it an honour to ride for him. Hard to believe they’re both gone within 4 months of each other, RIP. Sincere sympathy to all at @JuddmonteFarms

    Remembering my dad Joe today on his first anniversary. This picture shows the kind of thing he got up to in the yard back in the day - self taught, he used to do a lot of the farrier work himself. He was a great character, we miss him everyday ❤️
