Prince Charles is opening up about the emotional moment he cradled his first race horse as it faded in front of his eyes after it collapsed when they were out training.
Charles, 69, was warned to get off Allibar before he died, he recalls of the 1981 incident.
In a new interview, the prince told ITV racing presenter Brough Scott how he felt Allibar slow down while they were riding. “He crashed onto the ground. I held his head while the life drained out of it. I couldn’t bear it because you see the life going out of his eyes,” Charles said.
