Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 5, 2019 Journalists Share Posted June 5, 2019 Skitter Scatter (Scat Daddy) has had an easy spell since tearing a muscle while beating just one home in the G1 1000 Guineas on May 5, and trainer John Oxx revealed on Wednesday that last year’s G1 Moyglare Stud S. winner is being aimed at the G1 Matron S. at Leopardstown in September. “She’s making gradual progress. She’s been confined to walking exercise for a month and we’re coming to the end of that now, so we’ll see how we go from here,” Oxx said. “We think it [the torn muscle] happened about three furlongs out, and she just went backwards then. It’s disappointing, but these things happen.” “It’s a slow process, and she hasn’t been given the all-clear to step up her work yet,” added Oxx of the Sonia and Anthony Rogers homebred. “These things take time and we’ll just have to be patient. She will recover all right and hopefully it will be soon enough, but we haven’t set any deadline for her to run. The Matron S. is a Group 1 target we have in mind for her, but how we get there–whether we can get one or two runs into her beforehand–we’ll just have to see how she progresses.” The post Matron The Plan For Skitter Scatter appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
