The Mijas Cup 2010 winner Nelson Groom (FR, 2006) [Charming Groom-Slot Machine(Hiighest Honor)], won today the Premio Ayuntamiento de Mijas, prep race for the Mijas Cup. Ridden by J. L. Martínez for trainer F. Rodríguez and owner Reza Pazooki, the grey colt beat Entre Copas, with Seminole Cry third and Blackberry Boy fourth.
Nelson Groom followed the front runner Don Hernando Hab and forced an increase in the pace in the last turno, winning then in the stretch more easily than the one and a half length suggests. Entre Copas traveled comfortably in the rear of the pack and closed strongly to catch Seminole Cry near the post.
Here is a 12 minute video of the race: Premio Ayuntamiento de Mijas 2012
Nelson Groom and Entre Copas are among the favourites for the Mijas Cup 2012 and the win of either would be the first time any horse repeats the Mijas Cup.
In the other races of the meeting, the winners were Garajonay (First Samurai) in the 1,300 m for maiden 3yo, Longueiron (Baptize) in the Premio Cala de Mijas 2012, (2,000 m, maiden 3yo), Vraizem (Multazem) in the 1,800 m handicap and Artico (Artie Schiller) in the 1,300 m handicap
