Farewell King Kauto

I knew this was coming, obviously, and it’s sad, but I’m delighted that Kauto Star has got out in one piece.

Kauto Star was simply the best I have ever ridden, or am likely to ride. He had everything, guts, determination, durability and the ability to fight back when defeat was staring him in the face.

It was a privilege to be associated with the horse and he gave me my greatest days in racing.
