Mutasaabeq At The National Stud Handicap

Prize Money: $46,125

ELEGANCIA (2) returned in 2024 with a good effort at Sandown when fourth attempting the 2000m G3 Brigadier Gerard Stakes on soft ground. Down in grade finding ideal opportunity. Leading chance. MAJESTIC (3) did well at Sandown running a solid third in this handicap grade over 2000m. Rates highly. MAFNOOD (7) shaped with credit at that same venue managing a close 2L fifth among this company. Holds claims. QITAAL (4) was a good fifth tackling a higher level 2000m handicap at York. Not to be dismissed.

Most recently 3rd of 10 at Sandown Park on June 14 over 2000m, 2.5 len behind Chasing Aphrodite carrying 61kg at $6.50. The start before that 8th of 16 at York on May 17 over 2100m, 7 len behind Botanical carrying 56.5kg at $10. Nice effort last time so worth following up.

Useful gelding. At the latest run 5th of 17 at York on June 14 over 2100m, 5 len behind Ron O carrying 53.5kg at $17. The run before that second last of 10 at Redcar on May 27 over 2000m, slow going 16 len behind Arthur's Realm with 59kg at $7. Strong winning hope.
