Dominum Deo Takes Race Under Saddle
Dominum Deo got the better of tempo-setter Talbot Eh Plus to take the $6,000 Race Under Saddle event at Georgian Downs on Saturday (Aug. 8).
Talbot Eh Plus set a tempo of :29.4, 1:00 and 1:30.3 while tracked by Dominum Deo in second and Massive Muscles racing wide in third. Facing little pressure through the mile, Talbot Eh Plus endured late-race pressure turning for home as Marielle Enberg sent Dominum Deo for the front. The nine-year-old Donato Hanover gelding went by with ease, striding to a two-and-three-quarter length win in 2:02.2 over Talbot Eh Plus. Brydown Houston finished third.
Owned by Allan Kuepfer, Dominum Deo won his second race from 16 starts this season and his 25th from 215 overall, earning $195,374. Terry Gallant trains the $8.20 winner.
