Gosdens’ Day To Remember As Mishriff Lands Sheema Classic


Recommended Posts

  • Journalists

Mishriff (Ire) (Make Believe {GB} – Contradict {GB}, by Raven's Pass) proved not only his class but his versatility with victory in the G1 Longines Dubai Sheema Classic on turf five weeks after his victory in the Saudi Cup on the Riyadh dirt.

Under a cool-headed ride by his 21-year-old jockey David Egan, Prince A A Faisal's homebred settled well at the back of the field before challenging widest of all on the turn, keeping clear of a mid-stretch barging match between the two Japanese mares Chrono Genesis (Jpn (Bago {Fr}) and Loves Only You (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}).

Tackling 2,400 metres for the first time proved no problem for Mishriff, who battled on down the centre of the track, eventually narrowly gaining the upper hand over the Japanese duo in a tight finish, gaining the verdict by a neck, with Chrono Genesis second, another neck ahead of Loves Only You.
