Etc. . . . July 12

Owner Kip Colvin announced Thursday that his world record-breaking gelding Mandurah has retired after injuring a tendon. An 8-year-old by A. P. Indy, out of Morning Pride, set a world record at Monmouth Park in 2010 when he went a mile in 1:31.23. Mandurah won seven of 25 races and finished second twice, earning $164,357. Colvin is developing a small retirement facility in Piperton, Tenn., and he said in a tweet Thursday that Mandurah will stay with Dr. Foster Northrop until relocation to Tennessee. . . .
