Biddlecombe sheds a tear as Frankel wins at Ascot

Former champion jockey Terry Biddlecombe continues to make progress after suffering a stroke. Biddlecombe is married to trainer Henrietta Knight who guided Best Mate to three Cheltenham Gold Cups. He returned home at the end of last week and while he is recovering, Knight knows it will be slow progress. "Terry is making progress but everything is slow,." she wrote on their website, www.henandterry.com. "We know that recovery takes time but the messages and cards have given him a huge boost. "He stays in bed all morning and then comes downstairs it the afternoon and watches the racing on the television. "His mind remains sharp and he shed a tear when Frankel won at Ascot. What a fantastic horse!"
