Classy WA filly Tuscan Queen might have run her last race.
Tuscan Queen won both the WA Oaks and WATC Derby (2400m) in recent weeks but the Fastnet Rock filly has sustained a tendon injury.
Perth broadcaster TAB Radio reported Tuscan Queen has a tear in a deep flexor tendon, which requires a minimum of 12 months off the scene.
Racing and Wagering WA journalist Julio Santarelli reported the extent of the damage was discovered when vets operated on the three-year-old.
Vets initially treated Tuscan Queen with ice and anti-inflammatory medication but the problem failed to settle, which prompted the surgery.
Owner Bob Peters had the Caulfield and Melbourne Cups in mind for Tuscan Queen in the spring.
TAB had Tuscan Queen as a $26 chance in Caulfield Cup betting.

There you go, he rode quite light too from memory and not talking the light of today...more the 48-52kg light. Got a feeling too that he was one of the old fashioned blokes who liked to chew gum. Bernie was a great money rider when the right money…

Great to see Joey bounce straight back after his suspension with a win in the last today.

Should all be tested including rwwa staff, stable employees and trainers. That would probably reduce the field size a fair bit.It is strange that the numbers of people that are at the track drop when drug testing is being done.
