EDWARD Daly, the bloodstock agent with an encyclopaedic knowledge of form and the stud book, died suddenly on Saturday. He was 61. His career encompassed most areas of the bloodstock business and he enjoyed success in every sphere.
At the tender age of 14 years he saw Nijinsky win the Triple Crown and this encouraged him to pursue a career in the thoroughbred sector. He began learning the stud business at a variety of farms, Collinstown and Coolmore in Ireland, Yarraman Park in Australia and Burley Lodge Stud in England.
