Training great Barry Hills, who sent out more than 3,000 winners including five British Classics throughout his storied career, has died aged 88.  Our condolences to his family and friends.

That was such a wonderful, brave, harrowing & sad interview. Wonderful to hear the love John & Amy have for each other and for Carol, Hannah & Louise. Brave at the way John & Amy spoke. Harrowing to hear what happened. Sad that John & Amy to have lost their family needlessly.
