The race is part of the series that leads up the $20-million Saudi Cup scheduled for Feb. 20.

Scars Are Cool was sold for $175,000 at the 2020 Fasig-Tipton July Horses of Racing Age Sale to Ahmad Alabdullatif, a breeder based in Riyadh.

An advisor to several Saudi Arabian racing operations, Alabdullatif identified several candidates at the sale for consideration and Scars Are Cool emerged as the top choice of his eventual buyer, Mohammed Omar I. Alsakan. Lexington-based bloodstock agent Thomas Clark signed the ticket on behalf of Mr. Alabdullatif and the buyer.

Scars Are Cool was consigned to the sale by Claiborne Farm, agent for Sagamore Farm.
