Known as a quiet and humble horseman, Bloomfield was battling health issues over the course of the past year. He specialized in training trotters, with the highlight of his career being a win in the 1996 Canadian Breeders Championship Two-Year-Old Colt Trot with Pleasant Time - a horse he owned and trained.
The 60-year-old resident of Kerwood, Ont. notched 225 lifetime training wins over the course of his career.
