CAYMANAS Park is about to get a taste of the Pacific Northwest. Rocco Bowen, the Barbadian-born jockey with nearly two decades in the irons, makes his Caymanas Park debut on Saturday, June 27.

And he’s not coming to watch. Bowen picks up three mounts on the 11-race programme. He will ride Don’t Tell Lou for trainer Pater-John Parsard in the first race, My Eclipse for trainer Al Brown in the seventh race, and Midnight Traveller for Jason DaCosta in the 11th and final.

The numbers back up the hype. He has 1,497 career wins with over US$24.7 million in Stakes earnings. This is a rider who owns the Emerald Downs record book and shocked the world in the 2021 Longacres Mile Handicap aboard Background.
