FRANKEL added two more honours to his impeccable cv on Tuesday night when he was named Cartier Horse of the Year and three-year-old Colt of the Year.

Cirrus Des Aigles, trained in France by Corine Barande-Barbe and successful for the fifth time in a busy campaign when beating So You Think in the Qipco Champion Stakes, was named Champion Older Horse, while the Christophe Ferland-trained Dabirsim, who crowned an unbeaten five-race season with a spectacular win in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere, picked up the top two-year-old colt award.

Danedream, the devastating winner of the Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe for trainer Peter Schiergen and owners Gestut Burg Eberstein and Teruya Yoshida, fended off opposition from Classic winners Dancing Rain and Blue Bunting, as well as high-class miler Immortal Verse, to register a first success at the Cartiers for a German-trained horse in the three-year-old filly category.

RACING turned out in force on Tuesday to celebrate the life of Ginger McCain in the city that made him famous all over the world.

"To go to Liverpool [Aintree] five times and win three times and be second twice will never be done again."

And the late McCain himself had the perfect rebuttal to those who said all he did was train Red Rum.

"They said I was a one-horse trainer," he stated in an interview which was replayed during the service. "But what a bloody good job I made of that one horse."

Farewell to a legend.
