Wathnan Racing’s Hit Show powers to Dubai World Cup victory

Wathnan Racing’s Hit Show, ridden by Florent Geroux, won the $12mn Dubai World Cup at Meydan in Dubai on Saturday. The Brad Cox-trained colt produced a strong turn of foot to outpace Mixto, under Frankie Dettori, in the final furlong and clinch the feature race on the nine-card programme. The 2,000m dirt showpiece saw 11 of the world’s best battle for glory, but Forever Young — the Saudi Cup winner and favourite — could not live up to expectations and had to settle for third. Walk of Stars followed in fourth. The eight-year-old Ushba Tesoro, who broke from stall four, finished sixth.
