KINGSTON, Jamaica – The fifth race of nine on today’s (Saturday, January 30) offering at Caymanas Park turned out to be a routine journey for the Johnny Wilmot trained Locomotive.

Not even the much feared one draw coming down the straight could  halt jockey Paul ‘Country’ Francis from putting Locomotive into the lead when the starter pressed his button.

Thereafter, Locomotive was never in danger of losing winning by 1 ½ lengths over Danceallnight (Aaron Chatrie) with Boss Izzy (Shane Ellis) occupying the third slot.
