He's let the sport down again

Today should have been a great day for the sport of Kings,. Henry Cecil has been awarded a knighthood and rightly so,. It isn't his fault that Lord Grimtorpe has bottled out of sending Frankel to the Derby.

However, it should have been a double celebration. My brother in law works at DCMS and is responsible for xhecking the honours lists before they are sent off to No. 10 for validation,. One Nicky henederson should also have reieved a knighthood this week so that the sport could celebrate a great flat trainer and a lucky national hunt trainer. However, following the news that yet another horse in his charge failed a drugs test this week the offer was withdrawn.

Hang your head in shame mr Hnderson - you've shamed us all.
