Setback signals the end of Scenic's racing career
The daughter of Lope De Vega had made a fine start to her five-year-old campaign, with a Group Three triumph in York's Bronte Cup prompting the Wathnan team to purchase her from previous owner David Ward. She made a promising debut for her new connections when pushing red-hot favourite Estrange all the way in the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock and was being readied for the Lillie Langtry Stakes at next week's Qatar Goodwood Festival, but her racing career has come to an abrupt end. Wathnan Racing's adviser, Richard Brown, said: 'Scenic put up a career-best performance last time out and it wasn't unreasonable to hope for some even greater days ahead, but it's not to be. 'She will spend some time recuperating before joining the Wathnan broodmare band. She's one of the best fillies in an exceptional Classic family of broodmares, so the dream now is of big successes with her progeny.'
