A freakish injury to Chicago Bull has turned his connection’s New Zealand Trotting Cup dream into a nightmare.
The brave little pacer surged to Cup favouritism with an incredible victory at Alexandra Park last Friday but an injury suffered just hours later means he won’t race again this season.
The prolific pacing pony flipped over backwards when being treated on Saturday morning and fell on his back, ultimately suffering six or eight fractures to his whither region.
