DASHING OUT

Smart chaser Simply Dashing has had another setback and will miss the rest of this season.

Trainer Tim Easterby's father Peter said: "He has a slight leg injury and we have had to put him away.

"He was very good over hurdles and would be an even better chaser but for the wind problems he has had.

"It is frustrating but that's racing I suppose and we will have to wait for next season now."

Simply Dashing split See More Business and Looks Like Trouble when second in the Charlie Hall Chase at Wetherby in October but is without a win in the past two seasons and has had several operations to aid his breathing.
