The Waterford handler has firmly established himself as one of the sport’s elite trainers over the last 10 years.

KING HENRY: Henry de Bromhead and Peter Molony after Honeysuckle finished 2nd to State Man.

HENRY de Bromhead will head into this week's Festival with a different outlook on the sport and life in general following the most painful of years for him and his family.

The Waterford handler has firmly established himself as one of the sport’s elite trainers over the course of the past decade, regularly challenging the powerhouse Irish yards of Mullins and Elliott for top honours on home soil as well as enjoying huge success in the Cotswolds.
