Owner Rich Ricci has announced the retirement of three of his equine superstars in Faugheen, Douvan, and Benie Des Dieux.
Faugheen in particular will go down as one of the most popular National Hunt horses of the modern era, with the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham, the Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown, and back-to-back victories in the Christmas Hurdle at Kempton featuring on a glittering CV.
