KINGSTON, Jamaica – Nuttin But Trouble (Western Classic – Pink Hibiscus) eased to a comfortable victory on debut in the Caymanas Sunday seventh, which was for three-year-old maidens travelling four furlongs straight.
Nutting But Trouble with Ruja Lahoe in the saddle for trainer Randolph Scott, was not the best away when the gates opened. The lead was constantly changing with another first timer Princess Kailey (Abigail Able), Prosecco (Robert Halledeen), Balatelli (Raddesh Roman) and Lucky Plumma (Linton Steadman) all in the mix.
Lahoe then guided Nuttin But Trouble behind horses and made his move on the main track. Nuttin But Trouble responded by pulling away to win by 2 ½ lengths.
Morse Code (Anthony Thomas) finished second with Ballatelli in the third slot.
Lahoe had cause to celebrate as Nuttin But Trouble was his second winner on the day and his 100th overall.
