CURRENT four-time champion trainer Jason DaCosta continued his dominance after saddling three winners on the 10-race card at Caymanas Park on Saturday, August 15, 2026.

His winners were Purosangue and Formalist, both ridden by Robert Halledeen in the second and sixth races, respectively, and Fidelity, ridden by Tevin Foster, in the seventh.

Purosangue (USA) came from behind to beat stablemate Novio (Tevin Foster) by a head in the $1.19-million Restricted Stakes for imported three-year-olds and upward (non-winners of three) and native-bred three-year-olds and four-year-olds (non-winners of four) over 7½ furlongs (1,500m). Olivia D’Oro (Shane Richardson) finished third.

The winning time for the race was a smooth 1:32.0 with fractions of 23.4, 46.1, 1:11.1, 1:24.3.

Formalist made one move to take the $820,000 Jamaica Jockeys’ Guild Trophy, a Restricted Allowance II for native-bred four-year-olds and upward (non-winners of four) and imported four-year-olds and upward (non-winners of three) over 6½ furlongs (1,200m).

The four-year-old chestnut colt won by 2¼ lengths over Prince Roy (Dane Dawkins) and
Four Thirty (Emelio McLean) in a time of 1:19.4 (23.2, 46.4, 1:13.0).

Fidelity, a three-year-old bay gelding, was a game winner in the $1.1-million Restricted Allowance II for native-bred three-year-olds (non-winners of two) and imported three-year-olds and upward (maidens) over 5 furlongs (1,000m) straight.

Fidelity got the better of Anthony Nunes’ pair Dillsbury (Shane Richardson) and Rockhampton (Omar Walker) by ¾ of a length. The winning time was 1:01.0 (23.3, 47.2).

The treble pushed DaCosta’s seasonal tally to 62 wins.
