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.
Thanks for the update. I look forward to seeing her at stud.

She's a transgendered TB? Wow. Sorry, I guess I should say "he."

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.

Could be a Derby won by a filly this year.

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.
