SIR Alex Ferguson is one of the most successful football managers of all time – and has tried his hand at other sports alongside his glistening managerial career.
The Scottish manager is most famous for his time at Manchester United, winning 13 Premier League’s, five FA Cups and two UEFA Champions League’s.


United have largely struggled to replace Sir Alex, currently sitting in the bottom half of the Premier League, having not won the title since he left Old Trafford.
Ferguson got into horse racing after his first trip to Cheltenham, and now has a stake in 32 horses.
SunSport can reveal if any of the great managers horses will be in action at Saudi Cup.
