The Longines Red Sea Turf Handicap (Group 3) – Race 3 | The Saudi Cup 2022

Stay Foolish wins The Longines Red Sea Turf Handicap to continue incredible evening for Japan The Japanese takeover at King Abdulaziz Racecourse continued into race three on The Saudi Cup night as Stay Foolish (JPN) was absolutely dominant from the front on his way to winning the US $2,500,000 The Longines Red Sea Turf Handicap. Stay Foolish, a consistent 7-year-old, had been fifth in the Longines Hong Kong Vase last December, but the son of Stay Gold saved his career best for the biggest stage and did so in comfort in a time of 3:06.08. Jockey Christophe Lemaire made it an evening to remember as he brought up his hat-trick on the third Japanese-trained winner on The Saudi Cup card, this time for overjoyed trainer Yoshito Yahagi. Four and a quarter lengths back in second was the Johnny Murtagh-trained Sonnyboyliston (IRE), a horse given a ride that Murtagh himself would have been proud of as his stable jockey Ben Coen managed to get the Irish St Leger winner into a perfect position, tracking the leaders from gate 12. Siskany (GB) was back in third for Charlie Appleby and Godolphin after travelling well into the straight but this was another race which centred around a Japanese success story in Saudi Arabia. - Established in 2020 and organised by the Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Cup is a two-day international racing festival, headlined by the USD$20m The Saudi Cup – the world’s most valuable race. The meeting traditionally takes place at the end of February at the King Abdulaziz racecourse in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and total prizemoney for this year’s Saudi Cup day card, which features dirt and turf races that regularly attract the world’s highest rated racehorses, is USD$ 31.5m.
