Jo All the Way wins the Copa de Oro Donostia (San Sebastián) 2011
Jo All the Way, (Gold away-Secret Question) the French raider owned by Gerard Agustin Normand, ridden by P Sogorb, and trained by Eli Lellouche for won the Copa de Oro Donostia 2011, by three lengths, with Abdel (SPA, 2008) [Dyhim Diamond-Leonor de Guzmán(Glauco)] second and Festeiro (SPA, 2008) [Fol Parade-New Vert(Vert Amande)] a close third. Young Tiger (FR, 2001) was fourth.
The race was led by Pazifiksturm (GER, 2007) (Samum), second in the 2010 edition, with Domeside (GB, 2006) (Domedriver) following him and Señor Miranda (GB, 2007) (Fantastic Light) third. In the far straight, Pazifiksturm was led to the outer part of the track (following the same strategy as last year, like his stable mate Dunnboinee, who was in the rear part of the field. However, this time, Domeside took the lead and, with a strong pace, put some distance and Pazifiksturm couldn't regain his position. Domeside (for blinkers for the first time) entered the home stretch first, but Abdel and (along the rail) Jo All the Way surpassed him, with Young Tiger behind them. Jo All the Way was clearly the best, and Abdel seemed a clear second until Festeiro, although disturbed by Young Tiger in his late charge, closed strongly and almost surpassed Abdel in the finish line.
Jo All the Way is three times Listed placed in France and had an official French rating of 47 before the race.
Both Abdel and Festeiro come from families related to the Copa de Oro, since the dam of Abdel is half sister to Ceremonioso (2nd in the 1996 edition) and Newango, half brother to Festeiro was second in 2007 and third in 2008.
