Ciaron Maher emailed us today advising that our marvelous homebred Yulong January had been retired, that after earlier saying the fellow was feeling his joints.
A terrific campaigner with 9 wins from 21 starts and close to $700k in the bank. Mixed emotions from us: sad to see his racing career is over, but just so glad the stable so quickly pulled the pin and avoided a far less benign end. Am a bit emotional actually.

Whilst your emotions are understandable, there are many more plusses than minuses to his story, starting with the astute planning of his very existence
I'm sure you have many race winning pictures to admire or conversely, add to the melancholy, depending on mood at the time. I've no doubt all of us would be proud to have bred & reared such an honest high achiever |

Just must be so good to share in the successes of such a genuine and honest competitor. It's good to be emotional SC,.....be joyous in knowing you got to experience the thrills of it all, and the horse will be happy in retirement. I'm in envy.
