France, DEAUVILLE 6 August 2024
Al Shaqab Racing-owned Nour Al Maury, trained by Thomas Fourcy and ridden by jockey Christophe Soumillon, claimed the Doha Cup at Deauville in France.
Nour Al Maury travelled well in third in a race led by Soko (Nieshan) at a slow tempo. Not happy with the pace Christophe Soumillon went forward to sit half a length of the leader. Still not pressed on when the pace lifted, the fantastic mare went clear to win by two lengths. The well fancied Abbes (Tm Fred Texas) ran on for second while Rb Kingmaker (Baseq Al Khalediah) took third.
