Media Release - Tuesday September 6

She was making pleasing progress in her spring preparation, but injury has curtailed her racing career and she will head home to Cambridge to begin her new career as a broodmare.

“Unfortunately she has gone amiss,” trainer John O’Shea told RacingHQ.

“She developed a spiral fracture in her off-hind (leg) and she will be retired.’

“It is really disappointing.”

Satono Aladdin will unfortunately be missing his promising filly Koshu going forward.

Koshu is a daughter of Group One winner Satono Aladdin and out of Traditionally mare Syrah, making her a half-sister to Group One winners A Touch Of Ruby and Loire.

Keep an eye out for her progeny in the future as what Koshu did not achieve in the track herslelf may well eventuate for her foals!- NZ Racing Desk
