Harbinger career indoubt after gallops injury

BY RACINGPOST.COM STAFF11:07AM 7 AUG 2010

HARBINGER, the record-breaking winner of the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot last month, suffered a career-threatening injury on Newmarket's gallops on Saturday, sources at owners Highclere Thoroughbred Racing have confirmed.

Trained by Sir Michael Stoute,Harbinger had been working over 7f on the Limekilns gallops with stablemate Ask when getting injured.

Rumours surrounding the possible absence of Harbinger saw his price drift out to 4.5 from 2.2 on Betfair for his next target, the Juddmonte International, before the news was confirmed.

The four-year-old, who landed the King George by 11 lengths in record time last month having also taken the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot, had been due to run at York before a shot at the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe on October 3, for which he had been favourite.

Harbinger had established himself as the best horse in the world with his King George victory earning a RPR of 135.

Highclere managing director Harry Herbert had summed up the feelings surrounding Harbinger's victory by saying: "This is the best moment of my life - bar Motivator winning the Derby - but this is Highclere. It's the blue silks.

"I'd advise anyone to get into owning race horses, it reduces grown men to tears."
