Racing TV published this video item, entitled “Mutasaabeq loves the Rowley Mile!” – below is their description.
Charlie Hills had an additional reason to celebrate his 45th birthday after stable stalwart Mutasaabeq enhanced his reputation as a Rowley Mile specialist when securing back-to-back wins in the feature Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai Joel Stakes.
Boasting a record of three wins from four previous visits to the course the son of Invincible Spirit, out of 2009 1000 Guineas heroine Ghanaati, left two below par performances behind to claim victory number four at his favourite track in the Group Two contest.
Sent straight into the lead by Jim Crowley the well-backed 11-4 Favourite remained in that position throughout the mile contest despite being pressed hard by a number of those in behind late on.
After appearing to see off Regala Reality when skipping clear inside the final two furlongs, Shadwell’s homebred runner was then faced with a challenge from eventual third Chindit.
However, it was the be the rallying Regal Reality that was to throw down the last challenge after rallying back under a determined Ryan Moore, but Mutasaabeq was not to be denied with Crowly forcing his willing mount home by a head.
