Major disappointment for Patinack Farm today when promising three-year-old Count Encosta got upset when loaded into the barrier for the AJC Australian Derby at Randwick, got himself cast and exited the stalls with a cut to his off stifle.

Unfortunately for the team at John Thompson’s Warwick Farm stables, Count Encoast was withdrawn acting on veterinary advice but we anticipate the last start Tulloch Stakes winner will make a full recovery.
