DaCosta, Foster steal show with three-timer

CHAMPION and leading trainer Jason DaCosta and leading rider Tevin Foster stole the show at Caymanas Park when both combined to win three races on the ninerace card on Saturday.

DaCosta and Foster’s winners were highlighted by a dominant performance by Gallant Groom (USA) in the $1.25-million Errol “Big Sub” Subratie Memorial Trophy, an Overnight Allowance contest over one mile (1,600m).

Gallant Groom chased Neo Star (Raddesh Roman) from second position for the first part of the race. When Foster sent Gallant Groom through to take up the running entering the halfmile (800m) turn, the race was pretty much over as the four-year-old began to open up on the field with every stride.
