The Greatest..

I have been lucky enough to witness, from the winners enclosure, two of the greatest race horses there have ever been. Sea The Stars, and yesterday Frankel. Both of which won the Juddmonte International at the York Ebor meeting. Frankel yesterday stepping up in trip to a mile and a quarter for the first time, dotting up by a easy seven lengths. Winning his thirteenth straight race and surely going down as the best race horse there has ever been. I feel very blessed to have seen it; to have congratulated his trainer Sir Henry Cecil personally in the winners enclosure and to be within a few feet of the great animal. Unfortunately I didn't take my Canon with me so these photos were taken on my iphone. A moment I shan't  forget.
