American One-Two in the UAE Derby


Recommended Posts

Trainer Brendan Walsh got off the mark with his first starter on the Dubai World Cup card when Plus Que Parfait (Point of Entry–Belvedera, by Awesome Again) took the G2 UAE Derby by a half-length, setting himself up as a contender for the GI Kentucky Derby. The chestnut sat a rail trip midpack, switched out at the top of the lane for running room and charged back down the inside. Trainer Peter Miller, who had finished two-three in the previous race in the G1 Al Quoz Sprint and has had a handful of prior placings at this meeting, was again second with Gray Magician (Graydar), who put in a very admirable wide run. It was the second win on the night for jockey Jose Ortiz. Favoured Divine Image (Scat Daddy) broke tardily and after regrouping to race just off the pace, was spent at the top of the stretch and finished down the pack. Lifetime Record: 7-2-1-2. O-Imperial Racing, LLC. B-Calloway Stables, LLC  (KY). T-Brendan P Walsh.
