Excellent programme. What a horse and what a trainer.
A lovely and emotional insight into the love a human can have for an animal. |

A great man & horse, was meant to be.

About 6 years back I was asked for some advice from Henry, in the petrol station at Newmarket....... he said there were bubbles in his fuel tank, did I think it was alright ?....I said it was probably okay....I think I put his mind at rest.

Was it a Ferrari?

A reliant robin, actually.

No....some non-descript car.

You're funny TL  Yes - very good documentary although they skipped very quickly from the Guineas in 2011 to the Juddmonte in 2012. Would have been more pleasant to have spoken more about the intervening races. |

By:
Tom Queely hardly gets a mention, apparently.
Is that true? |
|
By:
I cannot remember him being mentioned once MD!

Gotta to be lucky sometime, EK

Very strange.
And very poor spelling of Queally by me  |
|
By:
easier to go for TPQ imo

By:
I'll remember that, Sonko.

TL,
I don't think I'll get the image of Henry Cecil driving down the Rowley Mile, in a Robin Reliant, out of my head for a while now |
|
By:
All part of the service.

a beautiful film, extremely moving whilst avoiding over sentimentality, wd C4
RIP Henry, very sadly missed |
|
By:
very enjoyable and moving documentary.
I wonder who the trainer was who said "that's Henry Cecil - he should've packed it in years ago." ? |

Stoute ?

ann stokell actually
, wicked sod whoevermade me cry when the poor guy could barely talk towards the end, very sad |
|
By:
I have just watched this.
There was no need for them to have mentioned Tom. It would have detracted from the story of Sir Henry and Frankel. It was a lovely programme. Very sad but hugely enjoyable. |

Very sad that an intelligent and talented man with a wife and children smoked himself to death. I just don't get it.

I don't get people who drink to get legless.
I don't get people who worship a god. I don't get people who take such drugs as cocaine. I don't get people who think it's okay to hit their children. I don't get people who spend thousands following a football team when only one of 4 or 5 teams will win the Premier League. I don't get a lot of thing that people do. The world carries on spinning though. |

I took an instant dislike to his son, didn't like him at all.

Did Henry have any other children other than Jake?
