AL MOURTAJEZ continues his harvest of victories and signs a top-level treble across the Channel: LIPPO DE CARRERE claimed victory, ahead of MONEER and SHAIHAAN, in the G1-PA UAE President Cup run over 2,000-meter on September, 12 at Doncaster racecourse, on prestigious St Leger day.
LIPPO DE CARRERE secured his first Group 1 win at the age of four, in style, after having collected victories in Abu Dhabi and Doha. The son of AL MOURTAJEZ was bred by E. C. and G. Dell’Ova.
MONEER continues his steady progress by finishing second, following a third place in the Qatar Derby for 4-year-old Purebred Arabians (Gr.1-PA) last June in Chantilly, France, and a victory in the Prix Dormane – Wathba Stud Farm (Gr.3-PA) in April at La Teste-de-Buch, France. The M. Al-Najafi-bred finished ahead of our homebred SHAIHAAN, also a son of AL MOURTAJEZ, who claimed third place on the podium. A dual winner on his first two outings, he had finished second in the Prix Damas (Gr.3-PA) last May at Bordeaux, France, on his first attempt at Group level. Entrusted to François Rohaut, he is out of Al Dowha (Munjiz) and is a full brother to our triple G1 hero LUWSAIL.
Congratulations to all the respective connections!
