Co-trainer Shaun Phelan
The Craig and Shaun Phelan-trained Bay Rocker has been withdrawn from Saturday’s Corson Maize Pakuranga Hunt Hurdle (3350m) at Elleslie after sustaining an injury.
The in-form hurdler was a $4.60 second favourite for the event after winning at Te Aroha last start.
“It is very disappointing for the team and connections,” co-trainer and rider Shaun Phelan said.
“He has come up with a suspensory injury but hopefully he will be back again next season.”
