The 38-year-old native of Barbados entered Sunday's closing day of the Royal Palm Meet with a one-win lead, 55-54, and clinched the title with 4-5 favorite Drama in the third race, following a victory with Genuine Gomo in the opener. Dandona, a $1.05-million OBS April purchase, gave Joseph his third winner on the day with a victory in the 10th race. Joseph finished with 58 winners and more than $1.9 million in purse earnings during the five-month Royal Palm Meet, which began Apr. 3.

Jockey Edgard Zayas was the Royal Palm Meet's leading rider with 93 wins and nearly $3.1 million in purse earnings and Ken Ramsey finished as leading owner with 13 wins.
