Twice Over - So Close In Classic

Posted by admin | Filed under Racing News

TWICE OVER ran the race of his life to finish a close third to Zenyatta in the Breeders’ Cup Classic at Santa Anita on Saturday. Khalid Abdulla’s four-year old was settled in the mid-field by jockey Tom Queally before making steady headway along the back straight.He was forced slightly wide around the final bend but stayed on strongly under pressure to take third, beaten just over two lengths.

The son of Observatory stays in training and connections hinted that a tilt at the World’s richest race, the Dubai World Cup could be on the cards for him in the spring. He is one of the most consistent horses in training and has shown now that he is equally effective on the all-weather as he is on the turf.
Twice Over is a credit to his connections and with his career best effort on Saturday took his life time earning to over £1million.
