Veteran Classic-winning trainer John Dunlop is to retire at the end of the current Flat season, the Arundel handler has confirmed to Press Association Sport.
Twice winner of the Epsom Derby with Shirley Heights (1978) and Erhaab (1994), Dunlop, 73, also saddled three St Leger winners in Moon Madness (1986), Silver Patriarch (1997) and Millenary (2000).
Other big wins on his roll of honour include three 1000 Guineas winners - Quick As Lightning (1980), Salsabil (1990) and Shadayid (1991) - and two Oaks winners in Circus Plume (1984), Salsabil (1990).

Eight rivals stand in the way of Camelot as he bids to become the first colt since 1970 to land the Triple Crown in Saturday's Ladbrokes St Leger.
The unbeaten son of Montjeu is the sole representative from Ballydoyle after Imperial Monarch and Monday's Galway winner Chamonix were both taken out of the Doncaster Classic. There is another challenger from Ireland, though, in the shape of Tommy Carmody's Ursa Major.
