ITBA wish to offer our sincere condolences on the passing of His Highness the Aga Khan, on behalf of the Board, members & staff. Our deepest sympathies to his family especially to Princess Zahra, his followers and many friends in the bloodstock industry. HH Aga Khan was a major influence in the bloodstock world and he did so much to support Irish racing and breeding. His generosity, passion and knowledge will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace
