May your father rest in peace and thanks for sharing.

Sorry for your loss and thank you for the insight to a part of racing we never hear about.

A lovely tribute. Many condolences.

**Maruco** · 8th January 2018, 1:09 PM

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.

**Ardross** · 8th January 2018, 4:24 PM

Many condolences jinny - racing clearly owes him a lot .

**2017diary** · 8th January 2018, 4:31 PM

Condolences Jinny, I too echo Ardross's sentiments

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

**Marb** · 23rd January 2018, 12:37 PM

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.

shocking news

**TheBear** · 23rd January 2018, 1:28 PM

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.

That is terrible news, especially so young and with a family

**wilsonl** · 23rd January 2018, 1:40 PM

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.

**tiggers1972** · 23rd January 2018, 2:26 PM

Real shock, and such a shame too.

**jinnyj** · 23rd January 2018, 2:56 PM

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
