G1 Betfred Oaks heroine Soul Sister (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) will miss the remainder of this season after suffering a small setback and will be pointed to a 4-year-old campaign, Charlie Gordon-Watson, racing manager to owner/breeder Lady Bamford, revealed Friday.
“It's only a temporary thing and precautionary and as we wanted to have her for next year it was the prudent thing to do,” Gordon-Watson said. “It's the sensible thing to do and she will be better next year, she's going to be stronger. She's not the strongest but she'll strengthen up for next year and it is the right thing to do.”
The John and Thady Gosden trainee was most recently third in the G1 Grand Prix de Paris on July 14 and also captured the G3 Musidora S. at York in May. She will head to Lady Bamford's Daylesford Stud for the remainder of 2023.
