KINGSTON, Jamaica – After a lot of disappointment for her connections and backers, Glock was finally able to pull the winning trigger in the Caymanas Saturday second.
Glock trained by champion Anthony Nunes with Omar Walker atop found the target in a four-year-old and upwards (non-winners of three) call travelling five furlongs round.
Walker settled Glock in second place as Chitu Prince (Roger Hewitt) sped off in front with K D Rocket (Robert Halledeen) in close quarters.
Glock and K D Rocket were vying for the advantage from the top of the straight. A fierce battle then ensured between the two with K D Rocket drifting towards the middle of the track.
At one stage, K D Rocket got in front but Walker got Glock to rally and the four-year-old chestnut filly proved too strong in the last half-a-furlong.
K D Rocket was second with Elitist (Anthony Nunes) in the third slot.
