Cup beckons for brilliant Sulamani

SULAMANI booked his ticket to the Breeders’ Cup with a highly impressive victory in the Turf Classic at Belmont Park on Saturday night.

The Saeed Bin Suroor-trained four-year-old cruised up on the outside of Delightful Irving off the final bend and went on to win by two lengths under jockey Jerry Bailey.

Sulamani appeared to stumble at the far turn but Bailey soon regained control and will be hoping for an easier ride in next month’s Breeders’ Cup Turf in Santa Anita.
