Classy WA filly Tuscan Queen might have run her last race.
Tuscan Queen won both the WA Oaks and WATC Derby (2400m) in recent weeks but the Fastnet Rock filly has sustained a tendon injury.
Perth broadcaster TAB Radio reported Tuscan Queen has a tear in a deep flexor tendon, which requires a minimum of 12 months off the scene.
Racing and Wagering WA journalist Julio Santarelli reported the extent of the damage was discovered when vets operated on the three-year-old.
Vets initially treated Tuscan Queen with ice and anti-inflammatory medication but the problem failed to settle, which prompted the surgery.
Owner Bob Peters had the Caulfield and Melbourne Cups in mind for Tuscan Queen in the spring.
TAB had Tuscan Queen as a $26 chance in Caulfield Cup betting.

Bob Peters is very smart. If he does have a fixed price that'd be extra smart. Then the trainer has no incentive to keep slow ones in work. The trainer is highly incentivised to accrue prizemoney. If the trainer wants to give any horses extra specia…

My dogs and 10's of thousands more have never seen a live animal and RIO I see you agree with Kramer so are you saying KRAH only chases because he's getting a live kill from behind closed doors? Anyone that supports this action in NSW needs to re…

Trained by my uncle Riders, Teddy Sullivan....he was a good horse alright. Won the Imperial stakes same year as well.....involved in the very controversial protest with La Trice in the Railway in 1970. Ted was a very good person and trainer. His st…

I am not sure what you could do Hash, let him buy as many horses he wants but he cannot race them in races worth more than 50k or races that are LISTED and better ? He puts a lot of money in and no rules to stop him so I think he will just carry on …

too try Duke, and he got so close to crossing the 1 dog.2 great things from the run for me after his tumble.1. he got out okay and showed no sign of injury as we expected2. He rubbed shoulders with the 7/6 dog on the way across and didn't baulk at t…

Race 1 trotters - four from same stable and two of them made sure favourite did not have a soft run. Stable would be first to complain if the Halls did it. Maybe the Hall's taught them. There is no one better at it than them.

I know my input has been down due to a few reason that are not linked to the site or racing. But in the past I would have still made comment as I'd done form and was keen to get a return. However this year has just been to hard to get on the right h…

trainers and jocks make the money in the industry....I'd be surprised if the top 50% of jockeys don't make a good living out of riding, and probably the top 25% of trainers. All the rest are relying on luck and secondary incomes.Whereas I doubt if t…

I wish this rule was in when I got time for not trying.

why wouldnt you? the horse had unfair advantage and took the prizeomoney rightfully owing to others. its form before and after proves it had unfair advantage too. Why was the stake money paid to the owners prior to the result of the swab, I have a…

I know someone that tried to get one named being "Don't Boo Me". I'm glad it was knocked back and it is a black dog as well. SHAME.

Looking to buy a share in a horse. First time doing so, any suggestions? Why not start by throwing hundred dollar notes into the Barbie.
