Prince Faisal's globetrotting multiple Group 1 winner Mishriff (Ire) (Make Believe {GB}) will undergo a thorough examination once he returns to the UK, according to co-trainer Thady Gosden, who trains with his father John. The 2021 G1 Juddmonte International and G1 Dubai Sheema Classic hero was attempting to become the world's richest racehorse with a title defence of the $20-million Saudi Cup, which was elevated to Group 1 status this term. However, the 2020 G1 Prix du Jockey Club hero failed to fire in Riyadh on Sunday and trailed home last of 14. After his International win last summer, he was fourth in the G1 QIPCO Champion S. at Ascot on Oct. 16.
Gosden said on Monday, “He was hard up on the pace early and he just stopped coming round the bend. He's flying back to the UK today so he'll have full check-up with the vet when he gets home.”
