KINGSTON, Jamaica – It did not take long for trainer Wayne DaCosta and his designated rider Omar Walker to get underway with their first winner of the New Year in the second of eight races on the today’s card at Caymanas Park.
Unbreakable provided the duo with that win in an $250,000 - $200,000 claiming contest run over 9 furlongs and 25 yards for the McKay Security Limited Trophy.
When the gates opened it was Top Eagle (Matthew Bennett 66-1) who took over at the front with Unbreakable who was first trained by DaCosta as a three-year-old sitting pretty behind in second place.
In the backstretch, Walker on the now nine-year-old Unbreakable followed closely until passing the six-furlong marker when he let go and that was that in the event.
Unbreakable won unchallenged by five lengths in a time of 2:02.2.
Second went to 14-1 chance Princess Kavel ridden by Aaron Chatrie with Chief Prospect third at 5-2 ridden by Anthony Thomas.
