Looking to Heaven, Foreign link steal show

Bush Lot United Turf Club one-day horse race meet…

SUNSHINE graced the Bush Lot United Turf Club following days of intermittent rains and fans were rewarded with high quality horse-racing action.

The one-day meet, sponsored by AJM enterprises, Jumbo Jet Auto Sales and Banks DIH, had six races carded for the day.

But the most intense action came in race three, the J & Lower open where the favourite Red Star, had the top bet for the win.

Red Star, owned by Shamsundar got away quickly over the six-furlong race and continued to stride well past the fourth, third and second furlongs.

But a late surge from Foreign Link coming down to the finish line ensured that the Deniesh Deodatt- owned horse would lift the top prize and the AJM trophy.

Elsewhere, the main event featured a three-horse shootout for the win. Ariana’s Vision took an early lead ahead of the pack, challenged by Everesting but a late surge by Looking to Heaven right to the line ensured the Jumbo Jet stable snagged the trophy.

Elsewhere, in race one which was for horses L Open & J3 Maidens & K Non Earners, it was ‘He’s A Prince winning ahead of ‘Plus Return’, ‘Prince of Peace’ and ‘Judge Not.’

Race two, the L – Non winners in 2022, ‘Bank Note’ won ahead of ‘O Suna’, ‘Awesome Banner’ and ‘Perfect Rose.’

Race four, for horses classed G & Lower was won by ‘Unsettled’ ahead of ‘American Traveller’, ‘Princess Stefani’ and ‘Amicable Kate.’

The two-year-old Guyana bred horses, race five, had ‘Rachel’ winning ahead of ‘Hardcore’, ‘Shes a Star’ and ‘Halo.’
