Calyx Out Of Royal Ascot


Recommended Posts

Last year’s G2 Coventry S. winner Calyx (GB) (Kingman {GB}) has been ruled out of this year’s Royal meeting and a shot at the G1 Commonwealth Cup after sustaining a pastern injury.

The John Gosden-trained Calyx was shelved after Royal Ascot last year due to injury, and returned with a four-length victory in the G3 Pavilion S. at Ascot on May 1. He was a shock second as the heavy favourite, however, in the G2 Sandy Lane S. at Haydock on May 25, after which the injury was uncovered.

Teddy Grimthorpe, racing manager for owner/breeder Khalid Abdullah, said, “Following his run in the Sandy Lane S., it has been revealed that Calyx sustained a pastern injury which is now being investigated. This will rule him out of the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot, but we are hopeful that he could run again in the latter half of the season.”
