Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 6 Journalists Share Posted May 6 A water walker incident has seen Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr have to abort the campaign of the lightly raced Globe (NZ) (Charm Spirit) after just one run this preparation. The imposing son of Charm Spirit finished fourth in the Victoria Handicap after an extensive layoff and had hopes of racing in Queensland over the winter carnival. The Roll The Dice Racing-owned galloper burst onto the scene winning his first four starts last year. His first defeat came in the Feehan Stakes when favourite after suffering from cardiac arrhythmia. “He crashed himself into the water walker mucking around,” co-trainer Kent said. “He banged his shoulder so we just have to give him a bit of time. “But we are not going to lose optimism with him, it’s very unfortunate.” In other stable news, Kent told Racing.com on Sunday a decision would be made this week on South Australian Derby runner-up Warmonger if he would progress to the Queensland Derby or the spelling paddock. It was a frustrating day for the Price-Kent team on Saturday with Warmonger, Angland and Wee Nessy all finishing runners-up across three states. The stable have also sent the promising Moby Dick to the spelling paddock after finishing fifth last weekend in the Vobis Gold Dash.
