SISTER SIBYL
ARROGATE has been described as “the dirt version of Frankel” by his trainer Bob Baffert, which means Prince Khalid Abdullah — owner of both horses — is a very wealthy man.
Of course, he was a very wealthy man before he got into horseracing, being a prince probably helps in that regard.
There are rumours he’s so rich, his wife doesn’t even bother asking him to take out the rubbish.
Arrogate burst to prominence when winning the Travers Stakes, setting a track record at Saratoga in the process.
I tipped him back then at 5-1 to win the Breeders’ Cup Classic, which he duly did.
He’s 1-3 to win today, and win he will. In fact you could argue his rivals will be settling for second place, with £1.6million in prize money for the runner-up.
I like US raider be the best of the rest.
