    • Jockey Clifford Lee, who has been hospitalised with a neck injury since a moterbike accident last month, is recovering, according to trainer Karl Burke. The jockey was on holiday while serving a suspension after winning his last four rides, and sustained a neck injury in Scotland. He is slated to be moved from Edinburgh to Middlesbrough in the coming days. Lee celebrated his first Group 1 win aboard Venetian Sun (Starman) in the G1 Prix Morny this year. There have also been several other notable wins this season aboard Royal Champion (Shamardal), Al Qareem (Awtaad) and Convergent (Fascinating Rock). Burke said, “I went to see him yesterday and he's still up in Edinburgh, but hopefully in the next day or two he's moving down to James Cook [University Hospital in Middlesbrough]. “He's in good spirits, but he's got a long way to go. He's restricted, but he is mobile and can walk – he's got full movement bar he can't move his neck. “We've still got to wait to see whether he'll be operated on or not, they'll make that decision at James Cook. There's a little bit of debate as to whether he needs it or not so he's going down to James Cook and they'll make the final decision. He's in a halo brace at the moment.” The post Clifford Lee ‘In Good Spirits’ According To Burke, As He Continues Recovery appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Journalism (Curlin) who took three Grade I races during his 3-year-old season, will not be retired to stud at Coolmore America just yet, but will instead resume training for a 2026 campaign, according to co-owner Aron Wellman. Journalism won the GI Santa Anita Derby, Preakness, and Haskell Stakes in 2025. “Journalism will return to training with Michael McCarthy in 2026,” said Wellman. “He will go to Bridlewood Farm for a 30-60 day freshening.” The colt's ownership group, which included Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, Bridlewood Farm, Don Alberto, Robert LaPenta, Elayne Stables Five, Mrs. John Magnier, Michael B. Tabor and Derrick Smith, watched as the Michael McCarthy trainee finished fourth in the GI Longines Breeders' Cup Classic at Del Mar last Saturday. Stallion fees at Ashford Stud were announced on Tuesday, Nov. 4 and included new acquisitions Sierra Leone (Gun Runner) at $75,000, Fierceness (City of Light) at $50,000 and Citizen Bull (Into Mischief) at $35,000. A decision on whether Journalism would be joining these newly-minted sires was expected this week.

    • Some tracks report everything well beyond requirements, often with additional reports, say on a Thursday for a Saturday meeting. Others like the CJC seem to be a law unto themselves, and their track reports are late more often than not.
    • So they report what God told @Huey to send down but not what they do themselves.  No wonder it is pointless trying to correlate moisture readings.  Yet aren't they required to run a water budget?  Of course if they aren't then there is no way of managing the track to be optimum.
