Vercingetorix is the best horse racing at this year's Dubai Carnival in my
opinion, from anyone's stable. He's most definitely a legitimate
international G1 level horse. I think he'll win the G1 Dubai Duty Free also
and leave Dubai with his unbeaten record still in tact. He'll then get
shipped to Sha Tin for the G1 Audemars Piguet QE II Cup in April, and
possibly on to Kranji for the G1 Singapore Airlines International Cup in
May. Shades of the brilliant Lizard's Desire for Mike De Kock in 2010 who
missed by a whisker winning the G1 Dubai World Cup, then went to Sha Tin
and ran 2nd behind Viva Pataca in the AE-P-QEII Cup and then went on to
Kranji where he won the G1 SAIC, reversing the DWC form with Gloria De
Campeao. De Kock also sent his top race mare River Jetez to those 2 races
after finishing 2nd to Presvis in the 2011 Duty Free, so he's definitely
not shy about sending horses he believes are good enough to be competitive
on to other top international G1 races after the Dubai Carnival wraps.
Vercingetorix has already shown he belongs in the top races in Dubai and I
think he's more than talented enough to be competitive in Hong Kong &
Singapore, IMO.
Love this horse!! One of my favorite horses racing in Dubai this year.
Vercingetorix, IMO, is definitely a legitimate international G1 horse, and
didn't seem to have to work that hard to win this international G1 race. I
think Vercingetorix will win the G1 Dubai Duty Free on world cup night and
leave Dubai with 2 more G1's on his resume' with his unbeaten record still
in tact. If that happens, expect to see him at Sha Tin in April for a crack
at the G1 Audemars Piguet QE II Cup and depending on how he fares in Hong
Kong, possibly a trip to Kranji in May to run in the G1 Singapore Airlines
International Cup. Outstanding run by Godolphin's Vancouverite too,
finishing 2nd coming off a 6 month layoff from having last raced in France
in mid-September in the G2 Prix Niel.
