The Champion sprinter Rocket Man showed his wellbeing for his trip to Dubai with a runaway victory at Kranji on Sunday. Rocket Man scorched to a dominant 5.75 length victory over the Capablanca with Noble Manor. Barend Vorster let his horse coast home in the final 200m in a time of 1:10.70.
Trainer Patrick Shaw was very pleased with the way the gelding settled when Dr Lemon led him in the early stages of the race. He commented: "I said to Barend if the circumstances permit to try and tuck in behind Dr Lemon early in the race and then let him open up once into the straight,"
Shaw said it was now all systems go for Group One Dubai Golden Shaheen over 1200m at Meydan on Dubai World Cup Night and avenge his defeat in the race last year. Shaw added: “we know he is spot on now and we are looking forward to Dubai."
