Salman Mohamed al-Emadi astride his trusted gelding Zorro Z clinched the feature event during the ninth leg of the Hathab Equestrian Series at the Al Shaqab Indoor arena yesterday.
Al-Emadi and the 16-year-old Zorro Z hit the straps to clear the hurdles without much difficulty to finish well ahead of rest of the field. The pair came home in 65.49 seconds as al-Emadi took home QR7,500 for his victory.
Mubarak Yousuf al-Rumaihi was second with Bolandro, while Rashid Towaim al-Marri came third piloting Beyonce.
The Open Class title went to Saeed Nasser al-Qadi, who emerged fastest with Jessico 4. Mohamed Said Haidan took both the second and third with different horses – Corrado’s Coriana and Damorano respectively.
