TOBA to hold spotlight in T&T

Published:Friday | December 11, 2009 | 9:42 AM

The Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association of Jamaica (TOBA) will hold the spotlight in tomorrow’s eight-race card, scheduled to be run off at the Santa Rosa Park Racing Facility in Arima, Trinidad.



TOBA will sponsor the final race in the card, the Jamaica Stakes worth US$45,000 which is open to West Indian bred, 3-year-old horses.



In the TOBA Jamaica Stakes, 12 horses will face the starter including 5 Jamaican-bred animals in Sound Of Thunder, Mission King, Hurricane Watch, Damage Control and Marathon Man, which won his last race.



They will have much to fear from the in-form Mister Kingston, which is conditioned by O’Brien, and will have the services of top jockey Nela Mohammed in the saddle.



Several other races will be named after some great Jamaican-bred horses Swing By, Mr Lover Lover, Border Dispute, Terremoto, Uram and Pride ‘N’ Glory.
