Tragically Beat The Bank suffered a fatal injury after winning the Summer Mile for the second year running. He was such a brave horse and everyone at Kingsclere and King Power are heartbroken. We will remember him forever.

Intransigent retires today. Born and bred at Kingsclere, he won 9 of his 80 races and £285k in prize money. What a star he has been and a wonderful flag-bearer for the Kingsclere Racing Club. He’ll be staying here for a long and happy retirement.
