Prince Raphael, a three-year-old son of Shakespeare, will not contest Sunday’s 153rd running of the Queen’s Plate.
Owned by Cristina and Oslen Belle, and Doug Reddington, trained by Debbie England and to have been ridden by Richard Dos Ramos, Prince Raphael fashions a record of one win and two thirds from four career starts.
“He came out of his last work with an injury,” said England, who won the 2008 Breeders’ Stakes with Marlang. “We’re uncertain on the timing of his return.”
