Doha, Qatar: Sabhea Awad Ibrahim-owned Suka’ar in company of jockey Szczepan Mazur looked invincible as the eight-year-old claimed a convincing seven-length win to clinch the Mesaieed Cup yesterday.
The Sabhea Awad Ibrahim-owned was a class apart at Al Uqda Raceourse, dominating all his 10 opponents throughout the 1300m Local Purebred Arabian Handicap race to seal an impressive victory for trainer Ibrahim Khaled Elahmed.

The feature, however, saw an exciting contest for second place as Mukabr, ridden by Salman Fahad Al Hajri, edged Hadi Al Ramzani-trained Habes by a length to secure runner-up spot.
Mazur, meanwhile, had earlier sealed his first title when he guided AJS Duhail to Local Thoroughbred Handicap title.
