Domestic Spending (GB) (Kingman {GB}), who was eased out of last Saturday's GI Breeders' Cup Mile at the halfway point and later diagnosed with a fractured pelvis, “continues to do well” trainer Chad Brown tweeted Tuesday afternoon.

After being vanned back to the Brown barn on the Keeneland backstretch, Domestic Spending was stabilized and later transported to Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital with a police escort. On Sunday, Brown surmised on Twitter that the incident occurred at the break and worsened until Flavien Prat was able to get him pulled up near the half-mile pole.

In his Tuesday update, Brown tweeted: “He is comfortable, bright and has a great appetite. We are optimistic to release him next week to our local farm where we are committed to provide him with a pampered life in beautiful pastures.”

Owned by Seth Klarman's Klaravich Stables, Domestic Spending won the GI Hollywood Derby and Saratoga Derby Invitational as a 3-year-old before adding victories in the GI Old Forester Bourbon Turf Classic (dead-heat) and GI Manhattan S. last season. He was making his first start since finishing runner-up in a paceless renewal of the GI Mr. D S. (formerly Arlington Million) in August 2021.
