Doha, Qatar: Millions stepped up impressively, clinching the Ras Laffan Cup - the 1100m Thoroughbred Open race for 3YOs - at Al Rayyan Racecourse yesterday.

The seven-year-old chestnut gelding, owned and trained by Abdulaziz Ali Al-Kathiri, was expertly guided by Szczepan Mazur, who waited calmly before unleashing a late charge in the final 100 metres to win by half a length. 

Rashid Saed Adiba, Head of the QREC Racing Operations Section, presented the trophies to the winners.

The triumph completed a hat-trick for Mazur, who had earlier ridden Roma to success in the Local Purebred Arabian Handicap (75–95) and the Local Thoroughbred Maiden Plate aboard Barkt Al Majd.
