Princess Yaiza Camp Eyes Saudi Cup Meeting

GSW Princess Yaiza (Ire) (Casamento {Ire}) could make an appearance in Saudi Arabia next month after returning to Gavin Cromwell’s yard. The Highland Yard, LLC runner enjoyed an excellent campaign in 2018, running some fine races in defeat before claiming Group 2 honours in the Prix de Royallieu at ParisLongchamp on Arc weekend. Her ninth place in the GI Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf was due to be her final outing for Irish-based Cromwell, with her American owners opting to keep her in the US with leading trainer Christophe Clement.

However, having failed to make the racecourse since the 2018 Breeders’ Cup, she is now back in County Meath and Cromwell is considering sending her on her travels again for the Neom Turf Cup–a $1-million contest on the undercard of the inaugural Saudi Cup on Feb. 29.

Cromwell said, “Princess Yaiza has been back with us a few months and we’re very happy with her. She had a few niggly problems and she’s now back with us. She could go to Saudi if she gets the invite. She’s not going to be covered this year, so hopefully we’ll see her racing here [Europe] later in the year.”
