Unbeaten three-year-old filly Commissioning (Kingman) has been retired from racing after suffering a career-ending injury. 

Trained by John and Thady Gosden for Isa Salman and Abdullah Al Khalifa, Commissioning broke her maiden over seven furlongs at Newmarket last July, pulling there and a half lengths clear of rivals under Frankie Dettori. 

She then went on to win the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes, over the same course and distance, in September before taking out the Group 1 Fillies Mile (1m), at Newmarket's Rowley Mile course. 

The daughter of Kingman (Invincible Spirit) was one of the favourites for the Group 1 1000 Guineas (1m) but she will now head to Highclere Stud.
