The Aga Khan bred LINNGARI, formerly trained by Sir Michael Stoute, won the Group 2 Al Fahidi Fort at Nad Al Sheba yesterday. This was Linngari's second outing for his new trainer, South African Herman Brown, the first having brought him a Group 3 win at the Dubai Carnival earlier this month. The 4 year old son of Indian Ridge is now one step closer to a run in the Dubai Duty Free next, indeed it was his jockey Kevin Shea who rode Ipi Tombe to success in this very race back in 2003. Out of the Kahyasi mare Lidakiya, Linngari is once again proving the influence of Kahyasi as a broodmare sire.
