Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 17, 2019 Journalists Share Posted April 17, 2019 Japanese superstar filly Almond Eye (Jpn) (Lord Kanaloa {Jpn}) has been removed from consideration for this year’s G1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe by owners Silk Racing. Masafumi Yonemoto, representative of the large ownership group, posted a statement on the company’s website that cited the filly’s recent journey to Dubai, where she won the G1 Dubai Turf on Mar. 30, and potential track conditions as reasons for swerving ParisLongchamp’s October showpiece. Yonemoto said the remainder of Almond Eye’s 4-year-old campaign is under consideration and that domestic and overseas races would be considered. Second on debut at two, Almond Eye has not lost since. Her unbeaten 3-year-old campaign included a sweep of Japan’s Filly Triple Crown and the Japan Cup, and she bested former race winner Vivlos (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) in the Dubai Turf.
