Desert Path wins at Warwick Farm

Desert Path, a private purchase by Avenue Bloodstock, scored at Warwick Farm on Wednesday over 2400m. Settled towards the rear of the field in the early stages, he benefited from the strong, early pace and from 600m out started picking off his rivals to win by a 1/2 length.

The good-looking son of Champs Elysees is out of the Listed-placed Desert Image, from the phenomenal Juddmonte family of Zafonic, Zamindar and Announce.

Congratulations to his new connections and trainer Chris Waller.
