Bedouin’s steps up for Zabeel Mile challenge
Dramatic Meydan winner goes for Group Two glory.
Frankie Dettori is back aboard Bedouin’s Story as he steps up in class for the Zabeel Mile following his last-gasp win in a handicap at Meydan three weeks ago. The Italian was seen at his very best on the six-year-old, who had been off the track for well over a year. Having entered the home straight almost last in the 16-runner affair, Dettori timed it to perfection, winning by a nose. “He was too far back in the race, but we had Frankie on who gave him a good ride,” said trainer Saeed bin Suroor.Outstanding ride, @FrankieDettori! Bedouin’s Story comes from the clouds to nail Dubai Mirage and provide Saeed bin Suroor and Frankie with quick-fire doubles @MeydanRacing #DWCCarnival pic.twitter.com/BMGWF8MNCp
