The Harriram Gobin trained four-year-old colt Coroneo returned to winning ways after more than a year when he impressively won the feature event over 1300 metres on a sloppy main track, yesterday, at Santa Rosa Park, Arima.In an event for horses rated 100-70 which looked set for the two AGA Stables Stars Holy Man and Clermont County to dominate, Ron Ali on the Chevan Maharaj owned Coroneo had other ideas.
Sent off as the 2-1 third choice in the betting behind the Shaffique Khan pair of Holy Man favoured at even money and Clermont County the 4-5 favourite, Coroneo made every yard of the running and pulled away in the final 200 metres for an emphatic success, in the five horse affair.Holy Man out-battled stablemate Clermont County for second.
Coroneo registered the good time of 1:16.4 for the trip while scoring by two and a quarter lengths. The identical distance separated the second form the third.Champion trainer John O 'Brien was the day's leading trainer saddling two winners in Big Fove O and Don Pedero.Riding honour for the day went to Ronald Ali who rode two winners on the eight race programme. He partnered Risky Trail in the opening event and Coroneo in the main attraction.
Racing continues next Saturday- Emancipation Day at Santa Rosa Park.
