Notes

[edit]

Lot of mistakes in this, mostly in the list of her famous horses. a number of those currently listed are horses that were owned by her mother. There are also a number of horses she owned that are not mentioned. So I'll correct this as best I can. (Victor Middlesex (talk) 17:43, 6 March 2018 (UTC)). As of 2018 she has 6 flat-racing trainers and two NH trainers. I'll work on this. Surprised to see she keeps her horses after retirement. This does happen sometimes but the majority of her retired horses are sold and this includes horses and broodmares she is weeding out of her stock.(Victor Middlesex (talk) 11:41, 7 October 2018 (UTC)).[reply]

John Warren

[edit]

The article has:

Her bloodstock and racing adviser is John Warren, who took over the role from his father in law, Henry Herbert, 7th Earl of Carnarvon, on his death in 2001. He had held the post since 1969.

I'm wondering about the "He had held the post since 1969" part. The John Warren article says that he was born in 1960. I'm guessing the 1969 date is when Henry Herbert became the racing manager?

This wording has existed in the article since it was created in June 2013‎. --Marc Kupper|talk 03:23, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
