Godolphin's
multiple Group I winning Sepoy mare Alizee is out for the spring after
being found to have bled on Tuesday morning at Osborne Park.
Alizee's (image Steve Hart) trainer James Cummings reported the incident to stewards after her
workout this morning.
The setback sees Alizee incur a three-month ban as per the Australian Rules of
Racing.
"It's a great shame, she's such a talented mare who we had high hopes for this
spring," Cummings said.
"Unfortunately there is nothing we can do in a situation like this and she will
now have a good rest and hopefully she'll get her chance in the autumn."
Alizee is the best performer for her sire Sepoy and is the winner of five of
her 14 starts including Group I victories in the ATC Flight Stakes and Queen of
the Turf Stakes.
