About this ebook
The story of a great love between a racehorse trainer and her husband
This is the rollercoaster story of a great love, between racehorse trainer, Henrietta Knight and her husband, Terry Biddlecombe. It is a story of triumph and tragedy in equal measures, as together they trained the great Best Mate to win three consecutive Cheltenham Gold Cups, before the horse's shocking death in 2005 and Terry's in 2014. Henrietta and Terry were an unusual pairing: she a bluestocking biology teacher, he a hell-raising ex-champion jockey, with alcoholism and two failed marriages behind him. After Terry died, Best Mate's owner said, "They were known as the odd couple, but in actual fact there was nothing odd about them at all. They were simply madly in love with each other.' Now, for the first time, Henrietta tells not only their story, but the story of Best Mate's tragic death, which changed their lives forever.
