The mill was undergoing maintenance during my visit (harvest season begins around May), but I got a glimpse at how the sugarcane is planted and saw how the operation is becoming increasingly mechanized.
My personal best in the middle distance was Mill Reef who simply annihilated some of the finest hoses being the only horse to win the Epsom Derby, Eclipse Stakes, King George and Arc.
In my view the greatest flat racehorses in the British Isles in the last 100 years were Mill Reef, Brigadier Gerard, Nijinsky, Dancing Brave and Shergar.
