CHAMPION jockey Raddesh “Sneaky Fox” Roman stole the limelight at the races on Sunday, notching his 100th winner of the season aboard He Stands Alone on the 10-race programme.

The impressive feat came in the fifth race at Caymanas Park, a Restricted Allowance V contest featuring native-bred five-year-olds and up (non-winners of two) and imported five-year-olds and up (maidens), contested over the straight five furlongs (1000m).

Trained by Gary Crawford, He Stands Alone put on a strong show to win by a half-length ahead of Storm Boy (Ramon Nepare) and Jet Ski Girl (guided by Jemar Jackson). The final time for the race was 1:04.0 (25.0 x 49.3).

Already riding high with 98 winners heading into Sunday’s card, Roman swiftly built momentum. He laid the groundwork for his milestone with a win aboard Tigeramedat (conditioned by Anthony Nunes) in the day’s third race, setting the stage for further triumphs.

Roman then authored a hat-trick masterpiece, guiding Bootylicious to victory in the prestigious Nigel B Nunes Memorial Cup, a $1.25-million Division 1 showcase sprint over five furlongs straight. Trained by Peter-John Parsard, Bootylicious stormed home three lengths clear in a scintillating time of 59.3 seconds.

Division 2 of the Nigel B Nunes Memorial Cup was won by Get A Pepsi, trained by Robert Pearson and ridden by Richard Henry. Get A Pepsi won by 2¼ lengths in 58.3.

Racing is scheduled to continue on Saturday.
