Arsenal fan and top trainer John Ryan will put football loyalties to one side as he and Tottenham legend Ossie Ardiles cheer on Manaccan in the King's Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot on Tuesday.
Ryan believes Manaccan, who will be ridden by fellow Gooner Frankie Dettori, is the best horse he has ever trained. And he is hoping it brings a much-needed trophy for a team of Tottenham Hotspur supporters who make up the Ossie Ardiles syndicate that owns Manaccan.
Argentinian World Cup winner Ardiles, who played for and managed Spurs, is also planning to be at the track to see the race.
