    I'd also like to add my own condolences.

    I'd say he'd be very proud if he knew his daughter had written that Jinny.

    Richard Woollacott, trainer of Beer Goggles and Lalor, has passed away this morning, at age of only 40.

    Far too young to be taken. RIP

    That's sad news. I didn't see a lot of him or know much about him, but I always kept an eye on his runners as I felt he tended to punch above his weight as a trainer.

    That’s awful, at such a young age as well. Do we know the cause? It doesn’t say on the article I’ve read.

    Absolutely awful news.

    May he rest in peace and condolences to his friends and family.

    I think I read the family are asking the media to respect their privacy at this time.

    Absolutely shell shocked to read this. I knew him quite well from the pointing world. In fact I first met him way before he even started riding when I used to buy hay from him. A really lovely guy who couldn't do enough for you and hugely popular too. He will be massively missed (and I really don't use that term lightly) in the West Country and my thoughts are very much with his family.

    What a crazy place the world is, go in peace
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done
