Darley (Shiek Mo's minor league stable to Godolphin) and Zabeel which is owned by Sheik Mo's son. He did have ill effects as it took him about 7/8 months of training before he could get back racing. Which he did in early July at Monmouth. No injuries at all. He always broke a half step slow and got banged around so much he lost all chance. You can't break like that, against those guys and have a shot.
