Naby Keita Jersey Lazar Markovic Liverpool Jersey . - UFC 178, previously announced for Sept.Classic winner Covert Love has been retired after suffering a strained ligament. The Azamour filly gave trainer Hugo Palmer his first Classic success when winning the Darley Irish Oaks at the Curragh last year, and added a further Group One victory in the Prix de lOpera at Longchamp.Also second in the Yorkshire Oaks, she had been due to make her four-year-old debut at Royal Ascot in the Prince of Waless Stakes. Palmer told Press Association Sport: Very sadly we have had to retire Covert Love, which is a great shame.She has a strained ligament, which is the sort of thing with a gelding, whose only value is on the racecourse, in a years time thered be a chance to race again, but obviously with a Classic-winning filly its a different ball game.Its obviously disappointing for her owners, who were looking forward to Royal Ascot and the season beyond, for Glen Magee, who rides her at home, and for all the team.But we are proud of what she achieved last year, she is so game and so giving. As one of her owners said, theres a line from Casablanca - well always have Paris.He added: She gave us some special days last year and we will miss her hugely, but she owes us absolutely nothing. She doesnt know theres anything wrong with her, shes only very fractionally lame at the trot, but we would be unduly risking her.It came to light this morning with a swollen joint and is a stark reminder of why the big days aare so special.ddddddddddddhe Curragh was absolutely magical - one of the great privileges of my profession is to train a nice horse for nice people. Not everyone in the syndicate knew each other but became close and we had a wonderful journey.We went to the Curragh having won a Listed race, hoping to be in the first three, but she won by three lengths. She was then just nudged off at York, before Paris, which is a day Ill never forget.The saddest thing is she is a big, rangy filly and what she achieved at three was fairly remarkable - she looked and seemed so much better at four.Racing UK is offering all new customers a free one month trial!
