Racing Post LETTERS: Sacred Sunday June 30th 2013

Jane Cecil writes 

We are truly grateful to everyone

I AM writing on behalf of all the team at Warren Place to express our sincere gratitude following all the kindness shown to us since Henry died.

 

We have received so many lovely cards, letters and emails in the past fortnight and we are truly grateful to everyone for taking the time to get in touch.

 

The support we received around our runners at Royal Ascot was wonderful and I will never forget how kind everyone was in what was an emotional week.

 

While I don't like to single out individuals I feel I must give a special thank you to Charles Barnett and his team at Ascot. They could not do enough to help us before and during their fantastic meeting and it was very touching that the Queen's Vase was this year run in Henry's memory. Henry adored all of Royal Ascot and had a special fondness for the staying races, in particular the Gold Cup and the Queen's Vase.

 

I would also like to thank the media for the warmth  in their coverage of Henry.

 

There have been so many lovely tributes, not least in the Letters page of the Racing Post, with people writing in to share some marvellous recollections of meetings with, and stories about, Henry.

 

We have appreciated, as well, the sympathy shown by so many people following Thomas Chippendale's death in the immediate aftermath of his victory in the Hardwicke Stakes. Thankyou to all those who sent in letters and cards.

 

Indeed, we just want to say a big thankyou to everyone for the effection and support extended to Warren Place in the last few weeks. It has meant a lot to all of us.

Jane Cecil
Warren Place, Newmarket
