What the Nation is saying about the 2011 Jebel Hatta (G2)...

Best race of the day at Meydan, IMO. The cream really came to the top in the Jebel Hatta. With Wigmore Hall, Poet's Voice, and Presvis all three hitting the wire together in a dramatic finish. This was a fantastic win for Wigmore Hall. A colt that's done nothing but improve every time out this season. Having beaten King's Gambit at York to win the John Smith's Cup. He ran a fantastic 2nd place effort behind Paddy O' Prado at Arlington in the G1 Secretariat Stakes, and prior to winning the Jebel Hatta, ran 5th behind Twice Over, Vision D' Etat, Debussy, and Gitano Hernando in the Champion Stakes at Newmarket. Trainer Michael Bell said after Wigmore Hall's win today that he'll almost certainly be pointed toward the Dubai Duty Free instead of the Dubai World Cup. Stating that 10f on turf is Wigmore Hall's best trip, and the Duty Free is an extended 9f race.
  • ajump08 · Definitely the most intertaining of the races. Michael Bell has a really rigorous schedule set up for this one with plans of Singapore and Hong Kong already before he even runs in the Dubai Duty Free. · 453 days ago ·
