Oxford trainer Gloria Stringer, who is not in the best of health, has reluctantly decided to retire.
Stringer (pictured), with husband Chris at her side, have been at the track for eight years after moving from Milton Keynes.
Good supporters of Oxford over many years, the couple have produced some smart top-grade performers, and will be missed by one and all at Sandy Lane.
They will say their goodbyes after all their current racing strength is taken up by other trainers.
Racing manager Gary Baiden said: "We are sorry Gloria is not able to carry on, but we wish her well."
