Sir Henry

A sad day for horse racing fans as legendary trainer Sir Henry Cecil finally succumbed to cancer.

He was a prolific producer of classic winners over the past 30 odd years, although perhaps best associated now with his most famous (and best) horse Frankel that beat all comers and has now retired to "perform" for something mad like £125k a squirt!

I was surprised to find Chris didn't have Sir Henry in his "stable" for 2013, but his list is made up mainly of people he doesn't like, so as a huge racing fan I can see why he left him out. Unfortunately this now leaves him the only pointless player at the bottom of the table.
