Wayne Rooney has splashed out on another racehorse,
despite two of his earlier forays into the world of racing ending in abject
failure.
The Manchester United talisman and wife Colleen were
forced to retire two of their horses, Pippy and Switcherooney, in December
after the pair managed just a single victory between them in 23 starts.
However, that hasn't dampened the 28-year-old's
enthusiasm - although he has decided to share the cost of buying the
three-year-old filly named Announcement with team-mates Michael Carrick, Jonny
Evans and Sunderland defender John O'Shea.
Announcement, who is being trained by Ian Williams, has
already equalled Rooney's racing record by winning only her second race at
Thirsk, North Yorks. The horse also finished fourth in her debut race at
Kempton Park, Middlesex.
