盈彩繽紛有傷, 暫時唔可以操練同出賽
:dddd: :dddd: 繼再豐裕之後, 又一季祚盡隻馬?
Unbeaten four-year-old Entrapment will not run in the Group Three Premier Bowl at Sha Tin on Sunday due to a mystery hind leg problem, which has champion trainer John Size and the entire Jockey Club veterinary staff baffled.
The first horse to win seven races in one season was expected to return to racing in the Bowl but developed a problem last weekend with his left hind leg, which has him walking around Size's yard very strangely and he was missing from the entries yesterday afternoon. "I've had the vets here to look at him and they've done ultra sound scans of the leg and his muscles and found nothing. Nobody seems to know what's happening," Size said. "The horse doesn't seem to be in pain, as such, but he doesn't have proper use of his leg. He tries to walk and he smacks his foot down hard like he doesn't have full control of it." Size says he has never encountered the problem in all the thousands of horses he has trained during his career. "I don't know if it might turn out to be nerve damage or maybe some old scar tissue, if he hurt himself somewhere when he was young, but neither I nor the vets have ever seen it before," Size said. "They'll press on and continue with more tests this week and I hope that they'll get to the bottom of it soon. Until they do, he obviously can't train or race."
