Illness has counted the New Zealand-bred Mastercraftsman filly Luvaluva out of Saturday’s Gr.1 Vinery Stud Stakes (2000m).
Trainer John Sargent advised Racing New South Wales stewards that she is suffering from an elevated white cell count, which signals an infection.
The winner of the Gr.2 Wakeful Stakes (2000m) in the spring, Luvaluva went to the top of the Vinery market following her last-start victory in the Gr.3 Kembla Grange Classic (1800m).
