Rush Attack V1

Courtesy Carrot Club
Rush Attack has always threatened to be a winner, but until today has never been able to claim the victor's spoils. I'm happy to say that not only was it a win at Sapporo, it was a truly impressive one, as he led the 2000m turf race from start to finish in a superb display of strength, taking on the pace and holding off his rivals at the end with real style. For sure, he slowed up a bit just before the post, but held off the second-placed nag that was carrying a significant 5kg less (in fact, it was the only horse in the top eight to carry top weight), and beat the favourite by a decent margin, too. Kosei Miura ultimately timed his run to perfection. Interestingly, looking at the Carrot Club homepage, the two most recent winners it always shows are Trovao and Rush Attack! 32 wins now, and counting...
