Cigar Injures Foot

Compiled From Wire Services

Cigar has bruised his right front foot, and his handlers are not sure how long the injury will sideline the 1995 Horse of the Year. Cigar, who extended his winning streak to 13 in the Donn Handicap on Feb. 10, sustained the bruise when he stepped on a stone.

Genuine Risk, the filly who won the 1980 Kentucky Derby and then did not produce a foal until 13 years later, produced another one Wednesday night at Three Chimneys Farm in Midway, Ky. The 19-year-old mare gave birth to a chestnut colt sired by million-dollar earner Chief Honcho.
