Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 28, 2019 Journalists Share Posted April 28, 2019 Mohaather (GB) (Showcasing {GB}), whose participation had been cast in doubt after coming up lame late last week, has indeed been ruled out of Saturday’s G1 Qipco 2000 Guineas. Sheikh Hamdan’s colt had won the G3 Horris Hill S. at Newbury last October and returned to that venue to take the G3 Greenham S. on Apr. 13. Sheikh Hamdan’s Racing Manager Angus Gold said on Sunday, “The vet tells me it’s bone bruising on his off-fore. We’ll have to x-ray it again in another couple of weeks and we’ll have a better idea of where we stand then. It’s a strange one as these things tend to be a cumulative injury, but he’d shown no signs of lameness until Friday. He’s going to need a period out of training–possibly a couple of months. It’s disappointing, obviously. Hopefully we’ll get him back in the autumn.” Sheikh Hamdan is still set to be represented in the Guineas by the Kevin Prendergast-trained Madhmoon (Ire) (Dawn Approach {Ire}).
