Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 30, 2020 Journalists Share Posted July 30, 2020 Japan (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) was a disappointing last of the three runners in Saturday’s G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth S., beaten 16 1/2 lengths by Enable (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}), but a potential excuse has come to light with the 4-year-old having exited the race with a “bad stone bruise.” “Japan came back a little bit sore from the King George,” said trainer Aidan O’Brien on Thursday after he sent out Japan’s full-brother Mogul (GB) to win the G3 Gordon S. “He had a bad stone bruise the following day, so maybe he was feeling that on the fast ground. These things take a bit of time to show up, but the next day he was very sore. Maybe that was the reason for his disappointing run.” The post Japan Sore After King George Disappointment appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
