harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,661 Posted June 19, 2009 Fellow-trainer-that-only-a-few-of-us-may-have-heard-of Barry Hills has had throat cancer for the past three years and is currently in hospital with blood poisoning. Edit - forgot to mention trainer Henry Cecil, who's had stomach cancer for a while but seems to be doing ok. Just saw him interviewed after his horse won at Ascot, and he said something like "well, I'm still alive" after being asked if he was in tip-top condition. Straight from the horse (trainer)'s mouth.
