Todd, who is the father of another noted trainer, Steven Todd, reportedly collapsed along the backstretch, during Tuesday morning’s exercise session for horses at the facility.

He was later rushed to hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Richard Todd was one of the most successful trainers during the 1990s behind the likes of Wayne DaCosta, who recently passed away, Kenneth Mattis, who is also deceased and another veteran Philip Feanny.

He is a former president of the United Racehorse Trainers Association.
