The life of the legendary racehorse owner Trevor Hemmings has been celebrated in a special collection of stamps ahead of the Grand National.
A three-time Aintree winner, Hemmings – who died in 2021 at the age of 86 – was one of the most respected figures in the sport during his 50-year career.
The set features images of his most famous horses alongside tributes from several well-known racing figures, including broadcaster Clare Balding, former jockey Sir AP McCoy and Olympian Zara Tindall.
Born in London, billionaire businessman Hemmings grew up in Lancashire but spent his later life living on the Isle of Man, where many of his champion horses spent their retirement.
