B. Wayne Hughes' grade I-placed filly Watching You suffered a fracture of her right front leg during a workout at Hollywood Park on Saturday and will be out of action for at least six months, Pablo Silva, assistant to trainer Warren Stute, said. The 3-year-old daughter of Coronado's Quest was scheduled to start next in the May 4 Railbird Stakes (gr. III) at Hollywood Park."She worked good, seven-eighths in 1:27 and change (1:27 2/5), and came back fine, cooled out fine," Silva said. "But a couple hours after, she was sore on it and the x-rays said she had a fracture. She had surgery (Monday) and they put a screw in and she's resting now and doing very good. She'll be sent to the farm in a couple of days and the vet said she'd be out for about six months."
