'I didn't know why he was that price'

Ahmad Al Shaikh's horse Hoo Ya Mal finished second in the Cazoo Derby at a three-figure price. Al Shahik was unable to see Khalifa Sat at Epsom in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. He believes that Hoo Ya Mal has the pedigree to excel in a Classic. The horse is trained by Andrew Balding. The colt ran well at Newmarket last time and Al Shayik is not expecting a quick reappearance for him.
