The son of Ato, second in the Zimbabwe Guineas, won the Zimbabwe 2000, second leg of the Triple Crown, at Borrowdale Park this afternoon.

Wantage is trained by Bridget Stidolph and was ridden by Morgan Nyamagwete – the third win for that combo today.  Bred by Newbury Racing and Breeding, the bay colt is owned by Newbury Racing (Pty) Ltd (nominee Dennis Evans).  Congratulations everyone.

Zambezi Rapids, with Kevin Derere up, gave punters some anxious moments,  and long-time leader Fire To The Rein was third.
