Trueshan lands Al Shaqab Goodwood Cup Stakes
The Peninsula
Goodwood: The progressive five-year-old Trueshan (Planteur x Shao Line) carried the colours of his owner the Singula Partnership to success in the Al Shaqab Goodwood Cup Stakes (Group One) as the world-famous Qatar Goodwood Festival kicked off at Goodwood yesterday.
Trained by Alan King, Trueshan outstayed his seven rivals to take the two-mile, group one contest under the saddle of Hollie Doyle, who was in a roll as she emerged victorious in three races. Trueshan was slightly keen through the first couple of furlongs but soon found cover behind race leader Nayef Road (Galileo). Going only a steady gallop, the positions remained unchanged throughout the first half of the contest.More Related News
