With this issue of Racing World we complete our 6th year of publication, covering the exciting world of Equine sport – horse racing, polo and other equestrian events. Having moved into unchartered territory in August 2003, we are happy to have established ourselves in this niche market providing enthusiasts of the sport with comprehensive information, detailed reviews, timely previews, profile interviews, news and views, breeding and pedigree updates, racing statistics and lots of interesting racing information. Polo has been an intrinsic part of Racing World and we have tried to cover as many events as possible during the polo season. Over the past six years we have had writers from around the globe show interest in writing for Racing World and this has added a new dimension with an international perspective. Promoting all aspects of equine sport is our objective and we hope that those connected with the sport will contribute with ideas that will invoke more interest to those already involved with the sport as well as to attract new entrants to the game. We take this opportunity to thank all our supporters, advertisers, subscribers, contributors and the racing fan in general who have supported us this far. As we commence our 7th year of publication we look forward to your continued support.

Mauritian
Mr. Brock wins in style
The Phoenix Beverages Maiden Cup 2008, the main race of the season in picturesque Mauritius was won
by Mr. Brock, and ridden by South African-jockey
Anthony Delpech, trained by Gilbert Rousset, and owned by Mr.& Mrs. Serge Seenyen.
The main racing event of the Mauritian horseracing calendar was run on 7th September 2008 in front of 30,000 enthusiastic race-goers. The Phoenix Maiden Cup run over 2300m had much to attract in the hot favorite, Mr. Brock. Winner of the Supertote Golden Trophy, the Gilbert Rousset’s -trained 5-year-old, had a 17-year old myth to surpass. No horse which had won the Supertote Golden Trophy had also won the Maiden Cup. Yet, Mr. Brock came with no fear of myths. He came with one Anthony Delpech, who rode him to a very impressive win.
