Roman’s choice signals Zulu Warrior’s class

Raddesh Roman opting for ZULU WARRIOR after two near misses astride the four-year-old, bypassing United States-bred stablemate, SHOOTING STAR, aboard whom he won back-to-back races, gives more than an insight into the leading rider’s thoughts for Saturday’s Awhofah Sprint at six furlongs. Astride when beaten by out-of-class CALIFORNIA CROWN at five and a half furlongs in the Kaz Hoshay two weeks ago, Roman returns aboard ZULU WARRIOR, badly needing to make amends after botching what should have been an easy win against MR SENATOR at six and a half furlongs on October 25.
