    • The Melbourne Racing Club announced on Monday that Tom Reilly has been removed as CEO. “Sometimes it just doesn't work out,” MRC chairman John Kanga said in a press statement. “Tom was only CEO for three months and when things don't go as well as they should, it is best to pivot and move on. “Everyone can be assured that we have put a management structure in place to ensure a smooth transition. I will spend substantial time at the Club as chairman, as I did before Tom Reilly was appointed.” He added, “I am pleased to announce that we have appointed Tanya Fullarton as chief operating officer to work with me. Tanya has an excellent reputation and deep experience and relationships across the racing industry.” The post Tom Reilly Removed as CEO of Melbourne Racing Club appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • New Jersey-bred GSW Joey P (Close Up) was euthanized at Old Friends Monday after succumbing to complications from a respiratory illness at the age of 23, the farm announced via release. A frequent face in the black-type ranks his entire career, Joey P won the GIII Jersey Shore Breeders' Cup Stakes at Monmouth Park as a 3-year-old and was even given a shot at the GI Haskell Invitational Handicap. While it was not to be, the gelding visited the winner's enclosure 18 times in his career and retired in 2011 as a 9-year-old with a 48-18-10-1 record. His earnings tallied just over $1.08-million. He was sent to Old Friends in 2018 courtesy of Second Call Thoroughbred Adoption and Placement, who supported him monthly throughout his retirement. “Joey P was a wonderful example of the star-power of 'regional' racehorses,” said John Nicholson, president and CEO of Old Friends. “Joey P built his racing resume as the hero of New Jersey's Monmouth Park. His specialty at the track was running fast and he excelled at it, earning a following of devoted fans who adored him.” “Joey P's specialty at Old Friends was making friends who all fell in love with him. He is going to be missed, especially by his paddock-mate, Tuneintobow. We are so grateful to Lori Lane of Second Call Thoroughbred Adoption and Placement for giving us the honor of caring for Joey P in his retirement.” The post Multiple Stakes Winner Joey P Euthanized at Old Friends appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Irish 1,000 Guineas heroine Lake Victoria has been ruled out of the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot. Undefeated in five juvenile starts last season, including Group One wins in the Moyglare Stud Stakes, the Cheveley Park and at the Breeders' Cup, Aidan O'Brien's filly was beaten into sixth place in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket on her return to action but bounced back to her best in the Irish equivalent. The daughter of Frankel was expected to be a major part of the Ballydoyle handler's Ascot team next week, but owners Coolmore said in a post on X on Monday, “Lake Victoria will not run at Royal Ascot. She will have an easy few weeks and will return for a late summer/autumn campaign.” The post also confirmed plans for Minnie Hauk and Whirl after the pair finished first and second in the Betfred Oaks at Epsom on Friday. It read, “Epsom Oaks winner Minnie Hauk will target the Irish Oaks, while Whirl, who finished runner-up in the Epsom Oaks, will head for the Group One Pretty Polly Stakes.” The post Irish 1,000 Guineas Winner Lake Victoria Ruled Out of Royal Ascot appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
