Trainer Eve Johnson Houghton has announced the death of former Queen Anne hero Accidental Agent, aged 12.
Accidental Agent, a son of Delegator, won seven times throughout his career which spanned eight seasons and he won over £755,000 in total prize money.
He progressed through the handicap ranks to claim a 33/1 victory in the 2018 running of the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot and won twice at Newmarket subsequent to his career-high moment at Ascot.
A statement posted on X read: "So sad to report that Accidental Agent died yesterday.
"He was the horse of so many people’s lifetime. Besides winning my first Group 1 he was a horse of great character who was loved by us all & will be missed by us all. Thank you AA."
