A winner at the track he gets weight relief with a claim. SAINT EMILION is ready to show his best and will find this easier. GREY ICE can measure up.

Mr Bayles joined the RAF whilst studying law at Oxford, became a Spitfire Pilot at 20 years of age and fought the famous Battle of Britain in the skies over England against the Germans. In 1942 he was posted to India and Burma to fight the Japanese until the end of the war. Thoroughbred racing and breeding were a big part of his life, as was the administration of the sport, first in the country at Seymour, followed by 13 years of service at the VRC.
