Little Brose, the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) victor, has been retired due to a tendon injury suffered during a trial in June.

Trained by Ben, Will, and JD Hayes, the son of Per Incanto from Little Avondale Stud clinched Victoria’s premier juvenile race in 2023.

Despite a consistent but winless three-year-old season, he transitioned to David Hayes’s Hong Kong stable.

There, he debuted with an eighth-place finish at Group 1 level in April, followed by a commendable second in May after stepping down in class.

“Before the trial, I was standing there at Conghua and said to my staff ‘this is a trophy horse for next season’. Ten minutes later, he was on a horse ambulance,” David Hayes lamented.

Following two months of deliberation, connections confirmed the four-year-old’s retirement on Wednesday. Details regarding his stud career are set to be announced soon.
