In 1983, he rode All Along to victory in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe then the filly captured 1983 Eclipse Award for Horse of the Year honors with three straight major event wins in North America: the Washington, D.C. International at Laurel, Maryland, the Canadian International Stakes (Rothmans International) at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Ontario, and the Turf Classic at Aqueduct Racetrack in Jamaica, New York. In 1996 he rode Pilsudski to victory in the Breeders' Cup Turf at Woodbine Racetrack and the Grosser Preis von Baden at Iffezheim Racecourse in Baden-Baden, Germany.


Walter Swinburn is to quit as a trainer on 31 October - although he may return if a backer can be found. The former jockey, 50, won the Epsom Derby three times as a rider, including the 1981 contest on Shergar. He took over the training licence from his father-in-law, Peter Harris, in November 2004 and sent out over 260 winners from his yard in Hertfordshire.

But with Harris ending his 30-year link with racing, Swinburn told the Racing Post: `A big decision had to be made` He added: `With a big yard like this you need the boxes full up, and Peter is the main owner. To suddenly find you are minus 50 horses would not have been a good starting point.

`I'm very confident you haven't seen the last of me as a trainer, but the advice from the accountants and so on was that it wasn't viable at the moment.

`When Id listened to their advice I was happy to take it. I just need to take a step back and it feels the right decision.`

Harris said: `Im sure the economic climate has played its part and my decision would reduce his numbers of horses in training.`
