The Godolphin Stable of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum privately purchased Tahitian Warrior following his career debut at Gulfstream Park by open space. After dueling for the early lead, the 3-year-old Tahitian Warrior opened up in the stretch, stopping the timer in 1:09.96 for six furlongs over fast going. He is a gelding by Maria’s Mon and due to ship to Dubai soon, according to Kiaran McLaughlin in a Daily Racing Form article from Monday.
Also noted is that trainer Wesley Ward is plotting a course to get his turf sprinter Hockeythehayman to the newly upgraded Al Quoz Sprint (G3) on the Dubai World Cup undercard. Hockeythehayman was a game second over an incredibly boggy course in the Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint Stakes, behind only Hatfield, another possible Al Quoz Sprint shipper. Ward famously landed two races at the 2009 Royal Ascot meeting.
