After Tuesday's announcement from France Galop that the equine influenza outbreak in Lamorlaye, France had spread to a second yard, trainer Julien Phelippon confirmed on Twitter that his yard was the one affected on Wednesday morning.
“My yard is Lamorlaye's second flu outbreak, Phelippon tweeted. “The two positive horses are in solitary confinement. The rest of my string is under close monitoring, going out in the afternoon to avoid crossing other lots. My two starters at Lyon, although healthy, will be non-starters as a precaution. I will not rest until the situation is fully resolved. Thanks to my employees, my BMC veterinary team and to France Galop for their efficiency and valuable help.”
