Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 10, 2021 Journalists Share Posted January 10, 2021 Group 1 winner Princess Zoe (Ger) (Jukebox Jury {Ire}) will not go to Saudi Arabia for the Saudi Cup card, her trainer Tony Mullins revealed on Sunday. The charismatic grey enjoyed a progressive campaign in 2020, taking the Listed Oyster S. at Galway in September, before adding the G1 Qatar Prix du Cadran on Oct. 3, her fifth-straight win. Her final race of the season was a fourth in the G1 Prix Royal-Oak. “We’ve decided against it. I’d love to go, but we thought the ground wouldn’t be suitable for her,” said Mullins. “We want to run her with a cut in the ground, and it’s unlikely over there. We’d have loved the money–but we’ll do right by her. I’d imagine we’d start in a suitable race at The Curragh if there is one, if not the Vintage Crop at Navan–that’s the plan. “If it looks like having a crack at the best over a mile and a half is possible we’ll do it–if not we won’t. We believe she’ll be as effective over a mile and a half, and if we’re wrong the Cadran is always there. We’d like to prove it’s possible, but if it’s not that’s it. It’s nice to be thinking of these races, anyway.” The post Princess Zoe Not Traveling to Saudi Arabia appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
