Josh Gifford
Thursday, 9 February 2012
 Further sad news this week is that legendary trainer Josh Gifford has died. The Daily Telegraph reports on the CA member and legendary character: "Gifford, himself an accomplished rider who was crowned champion jockey four times, will be most remembered for Aldaniti's victory at Aintree 31 years ago after his jockey Bob Champion recovered from cancer..... As well as Aldaniti, Gifford trained a string of high-profile horses - notably Deep Sensation and Bradbury Star - during a career which forged over 1,500 winners." We are sure all supporters will be thinking of Josh's family at this sad time. Read the Telegraph's report here. |
