Barnaby, Of A Revolution lead all for Nunes

BARNABY and OF A REVOLUTION each earned valuable Mouttet Mile points yesterday ahead of the US$300,000 event set for December 5, respectively landing the Distinctly Irish and Blumental co-features for Anthony Nunes, who closed the 10-race card with D.O.K to seal a three-timer.

American BARNABY, imported as a shipper for the 2024 Mouttet Mile, had finished a disappointing seventh, his connections’ woes further compounded after missing last year’s race, has been gradually clawing his way back to fitness this season since returning from a six-month lay-up in February.

Contesting his pet trip, nine furlongs and 25 yards, in the Distinctly Irish, BARNABY’s job was made much easier at his preferred distance by Jaheim Anderson’s handling of local-bred DON KWESI down the backstretch.
