(CNN) -- Even in retirement Black Caviar -- arguably Australia's most celebrated racehorse with 25 victories from 25 starts -- shows no sign of fading from the media glare. Only recently the mare grabbed plenty of headlines after a statue was erected in her honor. But another equine retirement in recent weeks has passed without quite the same fanfare -- Vote for Lust being put out to pasture. Vote for Lust is the cart horse to super mare Black Caviar. "He's just really, really bad," the horse's owner and trainer John Castleman told CNN. "He just doesn't go fast." Retirement came after its 90th run out -- ninety rides that came and went without a solitary victory.
