Title looks assured for Colombian jockey as Saudi Arabia summer term draws to a close

TAIF - Camilo Ospina is poised to become Taif Summer Season's champion jockey as 10 weeks of racing come to an end with the King Khalid Racecourse Championships on Sept 27.

Although the Colombian rider is without a mount in the final event of the campaign, he has won 20 races, seven clear of his nearest rivals, with victory all but assured.

A record-breaking figure in Arabian racing with over 1,000 career wins, the experienced Ospina is the go-to jockey for the sons of King Abdullah and is always in the spotlight during the season.

The 300,000 riyals (S$103,000) King Khalid Racecourse Championship for older horses over 1,600m brings the curtain down on the summer season before racing resumes in Riyadh on Oct 16, and many familiar names have been declared among the 17 runners.
