Al Shaqab Racing's Luwsail (Al Mourtajez) continued to improve by landing the Gr.1 (PA) UAE President Cup (UK Arabian Derby) which took place at Doncaster in the United Kingdom. With Ioritz Mendizabal in the saddle and trained by François Rohaut, Luwsail was third in the Gr.1 (PA) Qatar Derby des Pur-Sang Arabes de 4 Ans on last start. The Purebred Arabian reversed the form with favourite Extra Time (Valiant Boy). Owned and Bred by Al Shaqab Racing, Luwsail is now a Gr.1 (PA) winner. With all the runners racing keenly due to a lack of pace set by Amirat Al Zaman (Hilal Al Zaman), Luwsail was waiting in rear. Waiting for room over 3 furlongs out and going really easy, the homebred struggled to find a way out. Inside the final furlong, the superb colt finally found a tiny gap to lead in the last strides. Extra Time ran on for second while Molfit (Al Mourtajez) went third. Source: Qatar News Agency
