Bucc injury worse than feared

Andrew Balding hopes Buccellati will be fit for an autumn campaign after being ruled out of his remaining summer engagements through injury.The five-year-old will miss next week's Princess of Wales's Stakes at Newmarket and has been scratched from Ascot's King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes. The dual Group Three winner is still lame after being badly hampered by Frozen Fire in the Coronation Cup at Epsom."He's been sore since Epsom. There's no chance of getting him ready so we are going to just wait and have an autumn campaign with him," said the Kingsclere trainer."We've taken him out of the King George and he won't be confirmed for Newmarket."At first it didn't appear serious but obviously it's taking a while. There are plenty of races for him, we will just have to see when he's ready and see where to go."
