Default Shanghai Bobby retired; Data Link to Claiborne; Joyful Victory to sell

Shanghai Bobby, undefeated during his 2-year-old championship season in 2012, has been retired from racing due to an injury and will stand stud next year at Coolmore America’s Ashford Stud in Kentucky, according to a press release issued Sunday by his connections.

According to the release, Shanghai Bobby came out of his victory in the Sept. 20 Aljamin Stakes at Belmont Park with an injury to a suspensory ligament. That race was his first start since being sidelined with a pelvic fracture when finishing fifth in the Florida Derby at Gulfstream on March 30.

Shanghai Bobby was using the Aljamin as a prep for a start in either the Breeders’ Cup Sprint or Dirt Mile at Santa Anita, where last year he capped off a 5-for-5 campaign with a victory in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile.
