Its reported in the Sporting Press that last seasons Oaks winner is to be retired. I must say that her sporting owner Brigid Frank made the Festival meeting memorable for me with her antics at the top of the field after every round.
Fortuna has a long standing tendon injury that resurfaced again in her prep for this year.....so its off to the breeding paddocks. I hope her owners are rewarded with pups as talented and brave as thier dam.
Its great credit to the skills of Trainer Charlie Faul and courage of Fortuna......three runs on the last day is no mean feat but Fortuna shrugged off her handicap with great fortitude

Let the celebrations begin!!
