An amazing finish with Lord Admiral who seems to get better with age and over the trip of 1777m in the Group 2 Jebel Hatta he is unbeaten this Carnival and connections will now be heading for a run in the Dubai Duty Free and it will be a lovely story if the 7yo can go well there Mick Kinane produced another classic ride to win his second big prize aboard Lord Admiral the other over course and distance and this seems to be the ideal trip for the Charles O'Brien trained runner and that is a good win for Ireland who have done well here this season
