thanks jason for the fantastic information thats an amazing record is he the world record holder for group ones or just australia thanks again

It would be interesting to know who has the most G1 wins out of the UK & Ireland flat trainers, I'm wondering if Henry has been overtaken by the likes of Stoute, O,brien, & Godolphin after his quiet years recently??

think godolphin have 162 think o'brien has 160 might be wrong anyone no

The secret to Bart is his longeivity though, he got his first Group 1 win in the 1958-59 season with the South Australian Derby.
