Romantic Warrior has successfully undergone a veterinary procedure on his left front leg and has returned to Danny Shum's stables at Sha Tin.
The procedure followed a Computerised Tomography (CT) examination and a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examination of his forelimbs performed on 16 May, 2025 as part of a proactive health- screening process in accordance with the Club's systematic procedures for ensuring the welfare of our racehorses. No lameness or other clinical signs were present prior to the screening examinations.
Management options were discussed by the Club's expert veterinarians and Romantic Warrior's owner and trainer, and a decision was made for the horse to undergo a veterinary procedure at the Club's Equine Hospital in which a single screw was inserted under standing sedation and local anaesthesia. The procedure was performed on 28 May 2025 without complication.
Romantic Warrior returned to his stable where he will be closely monitored by Club veterinarians and stable personnel, supported by the world-class rehabilitation services that the Club has developed.
