She passed away due to illness while grazing.
I remembered back then, she gathered some attention due to her being a white filly, and she won her debut race impressively. Unfortunately, it went downhill from there.
May she rest in peace.
She is suspected to have a pelvic fracture, and there is no clear time for her return, so it is decided that now is the time to retire.
The first G1 horse of gen 2024 to retire, I think. I wish her a happy life post-retirement.
Huh? And I thought I wouldn't get to see any Epi progeny or Cesario descendant in Yasuda Kinen.
“He will win this. There is no way he would lose.” That’s how people probably thought about Forever Young in DWC and Kitasan 9 years ago. But sometimes, things just happen.
Will we finally see the first Spring Triple Crown in this year?
On a side note, Damian Lane will be Museum Mile's jockey in this race.
... Is this just an indirect way to confirm that Decile will head to Takarazuka Kinen too? Is there any other horse that Tosaki might prioritize over Regaleira too?
The fracture in his knee was discovered after Kentucky Derby, now he will undergo surgery to remove the bone fragments at Shadai Clinic in Hokkaido. His trainer said that the timing of his return is undecided as it depends on the result of the surgery and rehabilitation, but he is likely to rest for the rest of the year.
I hope he recovers well. It’s a shame. e is definitely one of the best dirt horses of this generation, if not the best. Looks like Danox won’t have their first G1 dirt horse anytime soon.
Not only that but Lemaire will be the jockey for Dream Core too.
And I don't think it's due to prize money either, Enjoy de Ask is registered for this race with only 1 win. But I heard from Netkeiba that she is back to the stable and starts training already, so maybe they want to treat her with caution and will just let her participate in a non-graded race in spring.
Hey, the queen is back. Due to circumstances, both she and Museum Mile are in the same boat, neither has run in anything for almost 6 months.
Her jockey hasn't been announced yet. I think it will probably be decided based on whether Decile will also be there or not.
Croix got the lucky 7. And in case someone says that Kitasan progeny finally got lucky, Wurttemberg is also a son of Kitasan.
He showed some abnormalities in his gait after his final workout. He will remain at the stable and Takarazuka Kinen is considered to be his next race.
With this, two potential Kizuna progeny have been withdrawn from the race, leaving only Sunrise Soleil.
Lemaire really just dodged a bullet by riding Redentor huh.
