ASCOT, United Kingdom (AFP) — Almeraq broke Japanese racing hearts on Saturday as Satono Reve was runner-up for the second-successive year in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes in a thrilling climax to the final day of Royal Ascot.
Satono Reve went down by a nose to 25/1 outsider Almeraq, who has made a remarkable comeback after a terrible fall at York last September.
Indeed Almeraq’s usual jockey Jim Crowley is still out of action as a result of the fall, but was present to see him put his name up in lights at the historic meeting.
