Chrome Looks to Shine in the Desert Cont THURSDAY, 25 FEBRUARY 2016 SOUTH AFRICA’S NEWEST SON CHROME LOOKS TO SHINE While it would be nothing new to see South African IN THE DESERT connections scoop a big-race win at Meydan, Harry’s Son (Aus) (Haradasun {Aus}) does represent a relatively new face on the international stage in the form of trainer Paul Lafferty, who will attempt to record his first win in the UAE with that colt in Thursday’s G2 Zabeel Mile. Lafferty opened his Dubai stable this carnival and has started three horses, one of those being Harry’s Son, who flashed home an eye-catching second behind the re- opposing Safety Check (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) in his local debut in the G2 Al Fahidi Fort Jan. 21. Harry’s Son was South Africa’s champion 2-year-old of 2013/14 after winning the G1 Champion S., and he won the G2 Gauteng Guineas last February and finished fifth in the G1 S A Classic over nine furlongs in March before entering the quarantine period to travel to Dubai. “We were very pleased with that effort [in the Al Fahidi Fort],” said Lafferty. “It was his first start since March and he has certainly benefitted from it. He stays 1600 metres well and we are hoping for a big run.” Cont. in Worldwide News p4 California Chrome training at Meydan | DRC/Andrew Watkins Thursday’s Meydan carnival card features a pair of U.S.-based standouts in its undercard handicaps: California Chrome (Lucky COMPACT FIELD FOR FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH Pulpit), who will use Thursday’s sixth race as a prep for a second Shadwell Stable’s undefeated Mohaymen (Tapit) headlines shot at the G1 Dubai World Cup Mar. 26; and Marking a six-horse renewal of Gulfstream’s GII Fountain of Youth S.

Doyle at the start of the G3 Al Shindagha Sprint two weeks ago in what was his intended local debut. California Chrome finished second in last year’s Dubai World Cup in what proved his final start of the year, and the now 5-year-old showed no signs of rustiness when returning a winner in the GII San Pasqual S. Jan. 10 at Santa Anita. Alan Sherman, son of and assistant to trainer Art Sherman, has been supervising California Chrome’s preparations in Dubai in recent weeks and said Wednesday, “He is a bigger and stronger horse this year. He has done everything we have asked of him and we are very pleased with his preparations. We decided to run this week rather than on Super Saturday to give him a month between races before the World Cup. We could not be happier with him and are really excited about having another crack at the Dubai World Cup.” Regular rider Victor Espinoza has flown in for the ride. It is the same race used by Curlin (Smart Strike) to prep for his win in the 2008 G1 Dubai World Cup; however, Curlin contested the race at the now defunct Nad Al Sheba racecourse.
