[granger]

Willows Saviour is out for the season. Hairline fracture to both fibias

 

[chroniclandlord]

Grand Crus retired
That 2011 stayers was a fine battle but judging on his performances in the last year clearly just not enjoying the game anymore.

Wishing a long retirement, at his best he was a very good horse.

what happened to SdB? Looked like it was never travelling, then McCoy pulled it up but it didn't look injured?

Reports say that Zenyatta's filly has passed away - website has crashed

 

[trudij]

I just saw that on Facebook - was at rood and riddle ( one of the best vets in America) and was euthanised, but doesn't say what she had wrong. Huge shame

 

[NewApproach]

That's really sad

 

[Ballydoyle]

Just found out that it was a paddock accident but nothing more specific than that. Zenyatta wasnt bred this season so will they send her back to War Front to replace this filly?

 

[Bonjers]

Le Bec retired apparently.

 

[jinnyj]

Really they were saying he was her Gold Cup horse beforehand? Was he injured?

Dank retired also tonight.

 

[chroniclandlord]

Le Bec retired apparently.

Out for the season at least with a tendon injury. Emma Lavelle is quoted as hoping that it isn't career ending.

 

[granger]

I'd say Un Beau Matin is unfortunately gone

 

[chroniclandlord]

I'd say Un Beau Matin is unfortunately gone

Sadly confirmed.

 

[chroniclandlord]

Le Bec's owner hasn't had much luck lately, he also owned The Last Night and Timesremembered.
