Qatar Racing and Andrew Balding have gone their separate ways, with Sheikh Fahad’s operation removing six horses from the Kingsclere trainer.
The pair have enjoyed a good deal of success together since Sheikh Fahad became heavily involved in UK racing, highlighted by the 2000 Guineas success of Kameko in 2020.
Other Group One victories were achieved by Elm Park, Side Glance and New Century, who finished fifth in the Craven Stakes at Newmarket this week.
Qatar Racing was founded in 2012, with Sheikh Fahad previously racing horses under the banner of Pearl Bloodstock.
In recent years Qatar Racing have diversified, with horses in training in America, Ireland, France, Australia and Japan.
Speaking at Newcastle on Friday, Balding’s wife, Anna Lisa, said: “Andrew and Sheikh Fahad just had differences and we just decided that it was probably best to go our separate ways.”
