Hot Springs, AR (SportsNetwork.com) – Champion filly Take Charge Brandi has an injury and will be sidelined for about two months.<\/p>\n
Take Charge Brandi, owned by Willis Horton and trained by D. Wayne Lukas, has a non-displaced chip in her right knee and is expected to be out of competition for about 60 days. The 3-year-old filly, winner of last year’s Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies, was to start in this Saturday’s Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park.<\/p>\n
Lukas discovered the chip Tuesday morning following training Monday. He said Take Charge Brandi was “a little tender” Tuesday morning and he first thought it might be an issue with a foot.<\/p>\n
“We’re going to take a positive approach to this,” Lukas said. “She’s only going to be out 60 days.”<\/p>\n
X-Rays were taken and sent to Dr. Larry Bramlage at Rood & Riddle in Kentucky. Take Charge Brandi will be taken to Rood & Riddle Wednesday so that Bramlage can determine whether surgery is necessary.<\/p>\n
In her seasonal debut, Take Charge Brandi won the Martha Washington Stakes at Oaklawn. The filly has won five of nine starts for $1,680,126.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
