Kinsale King out of Dubai Golden Shaheen
March 26, 2011DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) - Kinsale King was scratched from his Dubai Golden Shaheen title defense Saturday because of an allergic reaction.
Trainer Carl O'Callaghan says the 6-year-old horse developed swelling in his legs and hives on his body and face, prompting the decision to remove him from the $2 million race Saturday.
O'Callaghan says the cause of the allergic reaction is unclear.
Kinsale King gave O'Callaghan his biggest victory by upsetting favorite Rocket Man last year.
