The regally bred, UAE King (Frankel) was ultra impressive when winning a competitive handicap at Ascot this afternoon, the beautiful bay is coming on with each and every run, he took three starts to break his maiden, but has won his last three starts with a degree of ease.
His half brother, Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) was an outstanding racer in his time on the track, he won 5 of his 8 starts including 3 Group 1 events and has since then become one of the best sires in the world, which does give, UAE King every chance of becoming a top racehorse and possibly a decent stallion should he make it to the breeding shed.
It is little surprise that, UAE King stayed in the Jack Brown Handicap over 3200m and won so impressively at that, the blood of Derby winners such as Deploy and Shirley Heights pumps through his veins. He was ridden to victory by top jockey, Sylvester De Sousa for trainer, Roger Varian who is training him for owner, Sheik Mohammed Obaid al Maktoum.
UAE King has loads of potential and racing enthusiasts will most likely see the very best of him in the 2018 flat season, stayers progress with racing and time and he’ll be no exception by the way he put them to bed today.
