Henry de Bromhead has paid an emotional farewell to Honeysuckle as she enters her retirement.
The supermare ran her last race at the Cheltenham Festival two weeks ago with Rachael Blackmore guiding Honeysuckle to her fourth consecutive victory at the famous meeting in the Mares' Hurdle on the opening day of the Festival.
Prior to the event, it was strongly suggested that Cheltenham would be Honeysuckle's final race, and while de Bromhead did hint at a possible leopardstown send off, she has indeed entered retirement.
