Meydan: Gladiator King enhances great record of Satish Seemar in Dubawi Stakes

Satish Seemar continued his fine record in the Group 3 Dubawi Stakes, the feature on the opening day of the Dubai World Cup Carnival, as Gladiator King gave him a sixth win in eight years.

Partnered by Mickael Barzalona, the four-year-old stalked the early speed before being sent for home halfway up the long Meydan straight, eventually hitting the front inside the final furlong.

Barzalona said: “That was a very good performance in a strong race. He was always going well and picked up in style when I asked him in the straight.”
