Likewise, am very relieved Magical is not running at Santa Anita. She has been so tough and consistent, wishing her a long and fruitful retirement!
Magical was a tremendous horse and in any other era would have won seven group ones. Typical O’Brien Galileo filly,tough and consistent. A most gorgeous looking horse who donnacha adores. Happy retirement if you can call becoming a mum regularly retirement. I’m sure her foal by no nay Never will be eagerly anticipated.
And now Ten Sovereign retires. Being a sprinter, surely he could have raced on for another year.
Godolphin’s Hartnell will be retired on Saturday. I hate it when they announce “one last race”. Fingers crossed he goes out on a high and, more importantly, in one piece

Agree re Hartnell having to have one last race, if he’s going to be Godolphin’s flagship horse for their Lifetime Care Programme why not just let him retire as of now, it’s not as if they need the money and he has no stud value to improve.Remember seeing him run as 2yo at Newmarket about this time of year 2013 where he beat Montaly when he was trained by Mark Johnston and as a 3yo he won the Queen’s Vase at Royal Ascot and the Bahrain Trophy at Newmarket.
Enjoy your retirement Hartnell and thanks for all the happy memories
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Good run from Hartnell, finishing 3rd and going out sound. Happy retirement boy. Nice to see Magic Wand finally winning a Group 1 too.
Thunder Snow was also retired early November, hope he is as successful a stallion as he was on the racecourse.
Looking forward to seeing the progeny of Thunder Snow llavim with his fantastic sireline and good looks. Wish him a brilliant career at stud and happy retirement.
Also wish happy days ahead for lovely old Splash Of Ginge.
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Very pleased to see good old Raz De Maree bow out in one piece.
I was a bit annoyed at him not getting pulled up when toiling early on Sunday, but thankfully a happy ending for him.
Crazy to think that it was seven years ago that he won The Munster National, and he went on to win two Cork Nationals, before his finest moment at Chepstow in The Welsh National.
Smashing horse.
