Jack Sexton, who was well known in the Showgrounds and early Moonee Valley days, passed away on Monday, aged 93.
Sexton was associated with numerous horses over the years, the best being speedster Liberty Jay Jay who worked his way through the grades to make open class in the 1990s.
Sexton is survived by wife Pat and daughters Michelle, Sharon and Joanne.
Harness Racing Victoria extends its sincere sympathy to the Sexton family.
Funeral arrangements will be published later in the week.
