Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 4 Journalists Share Posted October 4 Autumn Glow cruising to victory in the Tea Rose Stakes. Photo: bradleyphotos.com.au The Chris Waller-trained Autumn Glow is a late withdrawal for Saturday’s Group 1 Flight Stakes (1600m) after presenting with lameness on early Friday morning. The daughter of The Autumn Sun was set to go around as a $1.50 favourite with horse racing bookmakers in the three-year-old feature, however, she will now miss her chance at Group 1 glory in the spring, with Waller hopeful of a 2025 autumn return. “Unfortunately, Autumn Glow was found to be slightly lame this morning in her right front leg,” Waller’s statement read. “An x-ray was taken which shows a minor chip in her right front knee. “She will therefore not take her place tomorrow in the Flight Stakes. “The chip will be surgically removed, giving her the best possible prognosis for a return in the autumn. “This is very disappointing for all involved, particularly the horse. “She is a very exciting prospect, and we are confident that she will make a full recovery.” Stable companion Lady Shenandoah and Tea Rose Stakes (1200m) runner-up Snow In May now share favouritism at $2.70 for Saturday’s Flight Stakes.
