Muller leads home 1-2 for Bruss in King's Cup


Report: Saudi Arabia, Saturday

Janadriya: Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup (King's Cup) (Group 1) 1m4f

MULLER, trained by South African Neil Bruss, beat stable companion Paris Perfect in the Group 1 Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup (King's Cup) over 1m4f at the King Abdulaziz aacecourse at Janadriyah in Saudi Arabia.

Last year's winner, Joe Louis, was third and all three could be Dubai-bound for the World Cup meeting at the end of March.

Premium Tap won this race in 2007 before chasing home Invasor in the Dubai World Cup itself, while Joe Louis' stable companion Don Renato was third in the Godolphin Mile last year.

Racing in Saudi as Alsaqeer, Muller, bred in Argentina, won the Peruvian 2,000 Guineas and Derby in 2006 and carries the colours of Prince Faisal bin Khaled bin Abdulaziz.

He was ridden by Sebastiano Madrid and will reportedly be targeted at the World Cup itself, while the runner-up could be aimed at the Godolphin Mile. No decision has been made regarding Joe Louis's target.

Neil also won with Field Event, who is now 2 for 2 in the desert. Team Valor sold the colt to the Prince for whom Neil trains. Both wins over a mile.
