Passage Of Time retired
David Milnes
PASSAGE OF TIME, who kick-started a revival in fortunes for Henry Cecil when winning in Group 1 company in France nearly two years ago, has been retired.
Owned by Cecil's longstanding patron Prince Khalid Abdullah, the daughter of Dansili enjoyed her finest hour when beating Soldier of Fortune in the Criterium de Saint-Cloud in November 2006.
The decision to retire Passage Of Time was taken after she finished fifth to Lush Lashes in the rearranged Yorkshire Oaks at Newmarket last month.
Cecil said: "Passage Of Time retires as a Group 1 winner and I'm sure she will prove a valuable addition to her owners broodmare band. She was very consistent and was a winner in each of the past three seasons."
A three-time winner as a juvenile, culminating in her success in France, Passage Of Time spent the winter as ante-post favourite for the Oaks and reinforced her position at the head of the market with a narrow victory over Sweet Lilly in the Musidora Stakes atYork last year.
Sent off the 9-4 favourite at Epsom, she could only finish eighth behind stablemate Light Shift.
After a break Passage Of Time recaptured her best form with minor placings in both the Prix Vermeille at Longchamp and theBreeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Monmouth Park.
This season she returned to winning ways when overcoming Bankable in the Steventon Stakes at Newbury in July and was beaten by just two heads when third in the Nassau Stakes at Goodwood.
In total, Passage Of Time won five times from 13 races and over £335,000 in prize-money.
