She retires from a 19 race career, spanning 5 seasons, with 15 wins, including 11 Group Ones and record earnings for a European trained horse of £10.7m. The most successful performer ever in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes, five Oaks (Epsom in race record time, Irish, Yorkshire x 2 & Cheshire). The only horse to win the Arc and the Breeders’ Cup Turf in the same year.
Teddy Grimthorpe said: “She has brought so much joy to everyone who has been involved with her. Her elegance and forceful personality have been nurtured by John and his team at Clarehaven, especially by Imran who has looked after her with such calm and devotion. In her, Frankie found a willing partner to execute her ability on the racecourse. Her CV withstands the closest of inspections, very few can match what she has given to racing.”
