“Mike de Kock considering Arlington Million for Imbongi”
Following Imbongi’s fighting third in Saturday’s totesport.com Summer Mile Stakes at Ascot, Mike de Kock is now considering an Arlington Million charge for the African Warrior.
Imbongi had made a successful British debut in the John Bovington Memorial Criterion Stakes (Gr3) at Newmarket over seven furlongs just two weeks ago, and followed that performance with Saturday’s Ascot Group Two third, being beaten only a length by Aqlaam who is rated 117 and is rumored to be heading for the Breeders’ Cup.
“That was a world-class run,” said trainer Mike de Kock. “We’re considering the Arlington Million next for Imbongi.”
