HK Debut Winner for Zousain

Tara Madgwick - Monday November 24

Zousain featured at the big Sha Tin meeting on Sunday with his unraced four year-old Mabubu kicked off the card with a debut victory in race one.

Given a solid grounding at barrier trials in Australia where he won a heat at Cranbourne back in February and then for his current trainer Chris So, Mabubu made the running and was too strong at the finish winning the 1200m contest by a long neck.

 

A $100,000 Magic Millions Book 2 purchase from the Riverdene Stud draft for Merrick Staunton, Mabubu is the third winner from four foals to race from Furiosa, a placed daughter of Chilean Group winner Wild Storm (Chi).
