Group 1-winning mare Lady Laguna will not contest Saturday week’s The Gold Rush (1400m) at Ascot following her sixth-place finish in the Group 1 Winterbottom Stakes (1200m) last Saturday.

The $1.5 million feature had been the goal for the Annabel Neasham and Rob Archibald-trained five-year-old, but connections have opted to end her campaign after her disappointing performance.

“Lady Laguna has pulled up well from her run in the Winterbottom Stakes and will now head home to Sydney,” a statement from the mare’s owners, OTI Racing, said.

“She will have a well-deserved break before embarking on an autumn campaign, where we look forward to seeing her back in her favoured right-hand direction.”

A winner of the Group 1 Canterbury Stakes (1300m) at Randwick in March, Lady Laguna had been a popular $4.50 chance in early markets with Neds for The Gold Rush.
