I haven't heard anything.

The one I'm looking for news on is Deluxe cause there have been rumors... can't find a thing on either girl.

Had a friend mention to me that he heard she got hurt, but I cannot find anything to verify that, other than her workout pattern. She raced in early January, worked on 1/12 and then 1/20.

Has anyone heard anything?

That should buy us at least another 10 days before the next thread about her whereabouts.

Easy big fella. As I did mention, I was told by someone that he'd heard she was hurt.

I apologize for overreacting. At least it was in keeping with the spirit of the thread, though.

In retrospect, this thread had it all. A gush about an A.P. Indy-related runner, a (unsubstantiated) death notice via MMSC, bad "insider" info, a Facebook reference, a squabble between posters, a trophy emoticon, Zenyatta, and a resounding lack of accountability when the truth emerges.

The only things missing to complete the DT microcosm were a photo from Coach, a pubmed link from Riot, and an incoherent x-rated analysis from freddymo.

Just for that Byk, I'm going to ask where she is every 9th day, before her scheduled workout.

It was the way he delivered it that made it so.. pithy.

Yeah, I know. I didn't really take either Rollo or you personally.

However, now I really am going to gush exuberantly over this filly when given the chance.

That debut really was spectacular.

I agree 100% You just don't see many firsters win like that, no matter who the competition.

Princess Arabella Retired

By
Marcus Hersh

Princess Arabella was injured while training for her next race the overnight Antebellum 75K.

The future Grade 1 winner has been retired from racing to stand stud at Millennium Farms in Kentucky, it was announced.

Though just a few races into her glorious career Princess Arabella might have raced again during 2012 had she not sustained a hind-end injury while training. She hurt her hind end late in morning training hours when another horse – one of only a couple out on the track at the time – ducked in sharply from the outside fence and slammed into Princes Arabella, who was in the midst of a routine gallop.

The Tarras owners will remain part-owners of her as a stallion, and she will stand for a fee of $7,500.

I wonder if Bob Baffert will put both Princess Arabella and Eden's Moon together in the Las Virgenes. I suppose if a first condition comes up, one will be re-routed there.

I fully expect the form of the Santa Ysabel-Hollywood Starlet-Sharp Cat Stakes to be murdered to shreds once these two fillies and Reneesgotzip reappear.

Yeah. She beat absolutely nothing at odds of 1-to-9 and a Cal Bred Maiden Claiming race will get a slightly better number in the 1st.

Clear trip. She was merely hand-ridden but a top class 7f young female should have been a lot more impressive with similar handling.

In what was pretty much a parimutuel work-out, she wins handily going 7f in 1:22 and 1. Broke much better, but still rated while 3 wide, took over and won while being encouraged, but still hand ridden.

I'm not exactly sure how much more she could have done given the circumstances. I wouldn't be negative about the race, at least she proved she could get out of the gate effectively today.
