-Brave Sky upsets field to take feature from stablemate Golden Blue Echo
It was once more a good day on the track for the up and coming Karibee Rice stable
which has been back in racing for a short while now.
The occasion was the Kennard Memorial Turf Club (KMTC) in collaboration with Anirude and Son Construction Company one day horserace meet at the KMTC track at Bush Lot Farm, Corentyne, Berbice.
The feature 1400M event saw Brake Sky owned by Mohindra Persaud and ridden by Prem “Light Weight” Chandra biding its time nicely before racing past the front runners down the homestretch. It was Goodwill Boy and Golden Blue Echo that carried the event for most of the race as the animals were sent on their way before Brake Sky made its move down the homestretch to win from Golden Blue Echo with a fast finishing Settling Star placing third and Goodwill Boy fourth. The win was worth $400,000 and trophy over 1400M.
There was a controversial end to the H and lower 6 furlongs race as the judges gave a dead heat to Super Bowl of the Saul Stable and Isn’t She Charming of the Jumbo Jet Stable over Cat Messiah of the Singh Stable although, photographic evidence showed Cat Messiah in front in a three way battle for the finish line. Campador placed fourth.
King Stanley of the Sooklall stable with Richmond won the three years old maiden event from Miss Angelie and Prince Saria.
The winner of the event for horses classified ‘I’ and ‘J’ and lower was Party Time, ridden by Colin Ross of the DeMattos stable, as it won from Mary Ann and Amazing Run.
Something Special, of the Woolford stable with Julius the rider edged past Confusion
to take the K class event with Lil Dude and Blondie rounding out the placings.
The L class non-winners five furlongs event saw Y. Drepaul guiding Blondie of the Ramcharitar Stable to victory ahead of Party Time, Blue Lightning and Physical Disturbance.
Royal Prince guided by Julius of the Blackman stable scored its first win by taking care of business in the L class non-earners event. Sweet Silence, Royal Progression and Red Weasel occupied the other spots.
Jockey Julius was the top jockey with the Nand Persaud Stable the top stable on show.
