Promising juvenile Major Cabbie sidelined

Barbara D. Livingston Major Cabbie won his maiden in his second start.
Major Cabbie, easy winner of a maiden race for 2-year-olds Sept. 29, is out of training until the middle of 2018 because of an injury, trainer Dan Hendricks said.
Hendricks said the setback was detected recently. Major Cabbie worked a half-mile in 51.40 seconds Oct. 12.
“He’s got a problem,” Hendricks said. “He’ll be out. It’s a shame. He can run, too.”
Owned by K.B. Sareen, Major Cabbie was purchased for $260,000 at a sale of 2-year-olds in training this year. On Sept. 29, Major Cabbie won a one-mile race by 6 1/4 lengths in his second start.
Sareen and Hendricks have one candidate for the Breeders’ Cup in Om for the Mile. In 2016, Om was beaten a nose in the BC Turf Sprint on the hillside turf course at Santa Anita.
