The spring campaign of Golden Slipper winner Guest House is over after the colt suffered a hamstring injury in trackwork.
The Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr-trained galloper had been in contention for a berth in The Everest before the injury struck after galloping at Rosehill on Saturday morning.
Price advised Racing Victoria Stewards at Flemington on Saturday of the injury and that Guest House would now be spelled for three months.
“He worked this morning and they weren’t happy with his action,” Price said.
“They had a look at the near-side hind and the ultra-sound showed there was some disruption in the fibres of the ligaments attached to the hamstring.
“We’ll get a second opinion, but we don’t doubt the first opinion will be correct.
“It’s basically three months rest up and then get him ready for the autumn,
“He’s basically done a hammy, but we’ll get him back.”
Guest House won the Golden Slipper in the autumn and returned to claim the San Domenico Stakes (1100m) first-up at Rosehill in August.
The colt was then sent out favourite in the Golden Rose (1400m) at Rosehill last Saturday but finished sixth after suffering an interrupted passage.
Price had The Everest (1200m) at Randwick on October 17 and the Coolmore Stud Stakes (1200m) at Flemington on October 31 as further spring targets for Guest House.
