NEW YORK — Shanghai Bobby, last year's undefeated 2-year-old champion, has been retired from racing after getting injured in his comeback race.
He won the $98,000 Aljamin Stakes by a neck at Belmont Park last Friday but hurt his suspensory ligament, a common lower leg injury in the sport. The race marked Shanghai Bobby's successful comeback from a pelvic fracture that caused him to miss the Triple Crown after he got hurt in the Florida Derby in late March. He won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile last year.
The colt will stand at Coolmore America's Ashford Stud in Kentucky, where he will join fellow Eclipse Award-winning juveniles Lookin At Lucky, Uncle Mo and Hansen. Shanghai Bobby had six wins — including all five of his races last year — in eight career starts and earnings of $1,857,000.

Dear All,
Thank you so much for your thoughts of sympathy for Dullahan. He was an incredible horse - so full of personality and talent.
It will take awhile for the realization to sink in that he has passed. He was such an important member of our stable. We will miss him soooo much ...
We are also sending our deepest sympathy to Jerry Crawford and Donegal Racing for their loss.
Love you, Dullahan - our thoughts and prayers are with you, buddy !!
Sincerely,
Romans Racing
