Training great Barry Hills, who sent out more than 3,000 winners including five British Classics throughout his storied career, has died aged 88. 

Along with those five British Classics, Hills achieved Stayers' Hurdle success with Nomadic Way in 1992 while a Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe trophy came in 1973 with Rheingold. 

Entirely self-made, Hills retired from training in 2011 and passed on the licence to his son Charlie. Including Rheingold, he will forever be associated with horses like Tap On Wood, Haafhd, Ghanaati, Royal Applause, Red Clubs, Equiano and more.
