Classy hurdler Knight Salute, the star of the Milton Harris stable, is out for the season after sustaining a serious injury in the aftermath of having a tooth extracted.
The Grade 1 winner faces an uncertain future as a result of the setback which occurred as he was getting up after being given a general anaesthetic for the surgery.
Harris posted on Twitter on Friday: “We are very disappointed to have to announce our stable flag bearer/warrior Knight Salute has unfortunately met with a severe setback.
