This is absolutely bonkers, from the RP:

French 1,000 Guineas winner Beauty Parlour is leaving Elie Lellouche to join Sir Henry Cecil, according to a statement from the Wildenstein family.

Do the Wildenstein's have any form for this at all?
 
They've sent a bunch of 2yo's to Cumani as well. Must have been some sort of falling out. Always thought Lellouche was a sound trainer.
 
Who's advising them?!

2yos to Cumani? I could write a list as long as my arm of places to send them to before him.

If I had a shed load of well bred 2yo's, there's only one place they'd be going for all I slag the pair of them off and that's Hannon's.
 
thats it...Cecil had to split with Piggott as they didn't want Lester riding their horses anymore due to argument over riding All Along

think they are a mardy arses tbh

They say they are looking for a more international presence (which must be a good thing). The family has decided to send 14 of its 85 horses to be trained here of which two fillies will go to Sir Henry (including Beauty Parlour) and 12 2yos to Luca Cumani. The others will remain where they are.

its a load of nonsense Steve realy isn't it? they just dress their fallouts up..makes me laugh..wish they'd just tell the truth for goodness sake instead of assuming folk are morons
 
Queally is unlikely to do anything as brilliant as Lester did on Vacarme in the Richmond Stakes - and nowadays that would be recognised as such and not get a 7 day ban . The late Harry Wragg said it was one of the best rides he had ever seen .

I imagine Soumi will be coming over to ride the horse anyway .

I know it was 1983, but there simply hasn't been enough hand wringing on this forum over Vacarme. It's a disgrace, I say!

It was a ******* scandal . If it wasn't for the fact that the stewards that day are probably all dead I would say heads should roll .

Here is Lester taking no chances on Vacarme the following month in the Mill Reef Stakes - by the time the horse was stuffed in the Middle Park under Joe Mercer Lester and Wildenstein had fallen out - and Vacarme never won another race .

They probably want her covered by Frankel and can't be bothered to join the queue. :D

A very volatile family. They have a handful of "fallouts" most days before breakfast.
 
Stewards bought off by Wildenstein then in order for him to moan about Piggott, then fall out with Cecil, giving him an excuse to remove his horses from Britain. Nice little conspiracy.
