I would like to welcome you to Al Shaqab Lockinge Day at Newbury, our sixth year of this sponsorship. Horseracing is considered one of the key elements of Qatar’s heritage and it has expanded both nationally and internationally in recent years. This is demonstrated by hosting the now internationally recognized Qatar Derby Festival in December and Emir’s Sword Festival in February in Doha each year. We also have our flagship sponsorships of major race meetings in Europe including the Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, the Qatar Goodwood Festival and the Al Shaqab Lockinge Day. Al Shaqab Racing has grown significantly and has already enjoyed tremendous successes, thanks to dual Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe winner Treve as well as our first English Classic winner Galileo Gold, winner of the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket, and Brametot, dual Classic winner in France of the Poule d’Essai des Poulains and the Prix du Jockey Club. As our homebred stock and our stallion roster increase in quality and number, I hope that we will expand further internationally as ultimately I aspire for Al Shaqab to be one of the very best horseracing and breeding operations in the world. The prestige and reputation of British horseracing is unrivalled and its importance on the world stage is second to none. This is why I am very proud and honoured to be part of it. I wish you all very enjoyable day. HE Sheikh Joaan bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani

FIVE FAMOUS WINNERS OF THE AL SHAQAB LOCKINGE STAKES PALL MALL (1958) The winner of the ﬁrst running of the Lockinge Stakes cemented an enduring association between his owner Queen Elizabeth II and Newbury racecourse, which she continues to visit annually. Pall Mall won the race just weeks after springing an upset to land the 2,000 Guineas. He became the ﬁrst of only three dual winners when gaining a second Lockinge victory in 1959.

BRIGADIER GERARD (1972) One of the greatest racehorses ever to compete in Britain graced Newbury in 1972 when he began his four-year-old campaign with a comfortable defeat of Grey Mirage in the Lockinge. He remained unbeaten until August that year when he suffered the one and only defeat of a brilliant 18 race career at the hands of Roberto in the International Stakes at York.

KRIS (1980) Kris had been compared with Brigadier Gerard after a dominant three-year-old season in 1979 when he claimed a haul of big races including the St James’s Palace Stakes, Sussex Stakes and Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. He looked set for another successful campaign when capturing the Lockinge Stakes but injury limited his season to just one more start before he was retired with a record of 14 wins from 16 starts.

HAWK WING (2003) Often hailed by Aidan O’Brien as being capable of great things, this was the day when the colt ﬁnally delivered. He had recorded a string of second places in 2002 in the 2,000 Guineas, Derby, Irish Champion Stakes and Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. But on his ﬁrst start of the year at Newbury the following year he made all the running to charge clear of his opponents and win by a record margin of 11 lengths.

FRANKEL (2012) The world’s highest rated racehorse paid his second visit to Newbury, where he had won the Greenham Stakes the previous year, and triumphed in the fashion to which the public had become accustomed, winning by a five length margin. This was achieved despite being the subject of an injury scare a few weeks earlier which had threatened to put his career in the balance. It was the first of five Group 1 successes in 2012 which ended at Ascot in the Champion Stakes before he was retired to stud with a perfect record of 14 victories.

RACE 7

Race Summary: A smart handicap to conclude. BLUE MIST has a good record fresh so he gets the nod to make a successful return from wind surgery under Ryan Moore, who is 2-2 on him. The low-mileage Path of Thunder and John Best’s Plantadream may give him most to do but it is a contest where a case can be made for quite a few.
