Doha, Qatar: Wathnan Racing’s Rothstein, ridden by Soufiane Saadi, bounced back to top form with an emphatic victory in the Lisha Cup at Al Uqda Racecourse yesterday.
The Alban de Mieulle-trained waited patiently behind the leaders in the 2000m Thoroughbred Handicap before launching a powerful surge in the final 200m.
Hitting the lead with authority, the grey colt kicked clear to secure a dominant 4-length victory, completing a remarkable double on the day for the connections and the jockey.
Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club’s Racing Manager Abdulla Rashid Al Kubaisi crowned the winners of the feature race.
