    Another great supporter of the sport lost as he died at the age of 88. Hopefully the breeding operation will be kept alive.

    May he rest in peace

    A great loss to the sport. He owned and bred five Derby winners.

    It was unfortunate that he took his horses away from Britain but only last year he had the Oaks winner and success at Royal Ascot.

    I believe his daughter has a great interest in racing, so the breeding operation will presumably keep going.

    RIP.

    Vale His Highness The Aga Khan IV

    Rest in peace Sir. Unrelated to this I was actually thinking of Shergar yesterday and the Peter Bromley commentary; think i’ll have to revisit it and marvel at the 81 Derby again and also at the wonderful Zarkava.
