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.

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.

In a statement, Devon & Cornwall Police reported: "Police were notified at around 10.30pm yesterday [Monday] to reports of a concern of welfare for a man at a property in Rose Ash, South Molton. A man in his 40s was discovered deceased at the scene.

That's terrible news. He always seemed to be a nice unassuming guy, and as a trainer he definitely punched above his weight. 40 is no age, and his family must be distraught.
 
A terrible tragedy. I felt physically sick when I read this news today. Such a young man with his whole life ahead. God console his family at this time.

What awful news, can't get the picture of him on TV after Beer Goggles' win out of my head - it's just tragic to think he has gone.

Thoughts with all his family and friends, they must be absolutely devastated.
 
Am in tears reading this; years ago he was interviewed about Dato Star; can't remember the question but the answer was 'because I love him'. Have adored the man ever since.
 
RIP Malcolm

I've never met him but he always seemed like a real gentleman who really cared about his horses.

Thoughts with his family and friends.
