UAE, Saturday
Meydan: Godolphin Mile Sponsored By Etisalat (Group 2) 1m, Tapeta, 3yo+
Quote:
JOCKEY Frankie Dettori nominated African Story as his best ride on the star-studded card at Meydan on Saturday and his mount did not disappoint as he stormed clear to land the race sponsored by his owners.
African Story took up the running coming into the straight and unleashed a blistering turn of foot to score by more than four lengths from the running-on Viscount Nelson, with the Charlie Hills-trained Red Jazz in third.

THE Dubai Gold Cup at Meydan on Saturday was voided after Fox Hunt broke down in the centre of the track early in the race.
The Mahmood Al Zarooni-trained Fox Hunt was positioned on the outside of the field when he came down a couple of furlongs into the Group 3, sending jockey Silvestre de Sousa crashing to the turf.
The race continued with Makani Bisty leading the field, but it became clear Fox Hunt could not be moved in time as the runners began to complete a circuit and a speedy decision was made to stop the contest.
