29 winners for Dubawi

Bowmaker records an impressive seven-length victory on his racecourse debut to become the latest winner for his first-season sire

Dubawi – who has sired more winners than any other first-season sire in Europe – recorded his 29th individual winner on 27 October when Bowmaker made a successful racecourse debut at Southwell in the UK.

Settled off the early pace, the Mark Johnston-trained juvenile took the lead with two furlongs left to run and eased clear of his rivals to win by seven lengths.

Bred by Brook Stud Bloodstock Limited, he is the second winner out of the Vettori mare Viola da Braccio who is herself a half-sister to three Black type performers including Offshore Boom – dam of Rock of Gibraltar.

Dubawi has also sired five Black type performers, including Godolphin’s Group-winning duo Poet’s Voice and Sand Vixen.
