Christophe Clement, 59
 
Fast moving cancer claimed Christophe this morning. One of the top horsemen of his generation. Thoughts to Valerie, Charlotte/Shaun, Miguel/Acacia and his loyal staff. Really sad.

its a type of eye cancer,,,i just cant get myself to think a eye cancer could take a life,, his eye yes,,, when it starts spreading its like fire i guess,,, he was a nice man, before 2001 i was able to go to backstretch with joe winney and donny [gateman] brace would get us in cc would be back there then and we would talk and share a coffee at that little shack in the back

so sad...Mr. Clement prepared a personal statement prior to his passing to be posted on his social media account on "X". May he rest in heavenly peace...
