Champion racehorse Alligator Blood, a seven-time Group 1 winner, may not participate in the 2024 spring carnival, as his connections prioritise the horse’s well-being.
Despite his remarkable comeback following kissing spine surgery, the owners emphasise that they won’t race Alligator Blood merely for the sake of it.
Owner Jeff Simpson highlights the horse’s impressive achievements and expresses a commitment to respecting his wishes.
Alligator Blood, currently on spell in New South Wales, is set to return to training for Group 1 targets in Melbourne during the autumn.
The specific race schedule remains flexible, with the horse’s preferences guiding decisions on future competitions, including a potential return in the spring.
