Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 5, 2021 Journalists Posted June 5, 2021 Triple Group 1-winning sprinter The Tin Man (GB) (Equiano {Fr}) has been retired from racing after sustaining an injury on the gallops on Saturday, trainer James Fanshawe reported via Twitter. “Sadly we had to retire our wonderful old stalwart The Tin Man this morning after he was injured on The Limekilns,” Fanshawe's Tweet read. “He has had surgery and is now standing. He will continue to be spoilt and have a home at Pegasus [Stable] for life.” Campaigned by Fanshawe's stable syndicate Fred Archer Racing, The Tin Man hinted at his talents when fourth behind Muhaarar (GB) in the G1 British Champions Sprint S. at three, and he built on that promise to win that event the following season. He added the 2017 G1 Diamond Jubilee S. back at Ascot at the Royal meeting, and made it a third straight season with a Group 1 win the following year in the G1 Sprint Cup S. That proved The Tin Man's last win, but he finished second behind Hello Youmzain (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) in the 2019 Sprint Cup and was placed in last year's G3 Hackwood S. and G3 Bengough S.
