He has been in poor health. He has been in hospital for the last ten days so it wasn’t a total shock, but when it happens of course it’s still a shock.
“We have three runners here today and we were going to take them out but there’s no doubt about it, he would have wanted them to run, so we are running.”
“He was fantastic, a very good trainer a very nice man and a legendary person”


“What four of his pupils say about Reg.
