Epitaph
SIR HENRY CECIL
1943 - 2013
EQUUS ZONE
HRAC TRUE PIONEER OF THE TURF
SIR HENRY CECIL gifted his career, life
and times to the training, wellbeing and success of racehorses and the people
who work with them every day. He has shown the Worldwide Sport of Horseracing
what true bloodhorse literacy is really all about, compassion, understanding
and a life giving kindness within true Equine communication between man and
horse within this Sport.
Sir Henry a true fine
and accurate pioneer horseman within this World Horseracing Sport, the most wonderful of all Sports, because of the horses and the true interaction between horse and man, and all who find it.
Is this way a world directon to a true life example of how life should be lived out here on this earth? A Team Work, a Belonging, a True Caring Embracing with it, the Animal Kingdom. Cecil had his
own true Equus Zone working day in, day out, at Warren Place, ongoing over decades of spectaculor success which he shared with all of us through thick and thin, even still when he was so ill, like a dead man still walking, he never gave up on his own beliefs, no matter what, he has left us his Lady Jane at the helm of
Team Cecil Warren Place Newmarket, his spirit lives on.
NEWS: (CNN) -- It is a bittersweet irony that, after a four-decade career which saw
Henry Cecil train thousands of racehorses, he will forever be remembered for
just one -- Frankel.
It is now almost impossible to mention Cecil, who passed away Tuesday at
the age of 70 after a long battle with cancer, without mentioning Frankel in
the same breath.
Yet the master trainer had already done more than enough to stake his
claim to being one of the greatest trainers ever to grace the turf before the
bay colt with the four white feet arrived at his Newmarket yard in 2010.
Cecil was born in 1943 into an aristocratic family. He used to claim,
with typical self-deprecation, that he was the first person from his prep
school to ever fail the Eton entrance exam.
American Trainer FRANKEL
Robert Julian Frankel[2] (July 9, 1941 – November 16, 2009) was an
American
thoroughbred
race horse
trainer
whom ESPN called
"one of the most successful and respected trainers in the history of
thoroughbred racing."[3]
He was inducted into the National Museum of Racing
and Hall of Fame in 1995, and was a five-time winner of the Eclipse Award for Outstanding
Trainer. Often referred to as "Bobby" by others, he preferred and
always used "Robert." [4]
Frankel set the single-season world record for most Grade/Group I victories in
2003 with 25 Grade I wins, a record he still holds.[5]
