With Salloom Dramatically Scratched, Zoustar Colt Brotherly Love Strikes At Meydan

[Wandering Eyes]

'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard Salloom (Authentic) was expected to take all the beating in Friday's Listed Dubai Road to the Kentucky Derby, but as he did prior to his would-be debut back in December, he was badly behaved at the gates and busted through before being apprehended and not permitted to take part. A field of 11 was ultimately loaded and Jim and Clare Ltd's BROTHERLY LOVE (GB) (c, 3, Zoustar {Aus}–Ruby Love {Chi}, by Scat Daddy)–the half-brother to last year's runner-up Heart of Honor (GB) (Honor A. P.)–saved his best for last, as he hit top gear four off the inside with time ticking away to be along in the shades of the post.

Slowly into stride as has become his custom, the 40,000gns Tattersalls October yearling purchase raced behind midfield down the back and was under a busy Saffie Osborne ride, appearing to be spinning his wheels. But just like Heart of Honor needs to be kept after, so, too, does Brotherly Love and he finally began to get interested with the Meydan straight looming. He still had it all to do as longtime leader Duke of Immatin (Gun Runner) was not laying down up front, Brotherly Love kept on plugging away to find the line in the nick of time.

The victory is worth 20 points on the Euro/Middle East Road to the Kentucky Derby.
