Tabiti shares the spoils in Gr.3 Oak Tree Stakes dead-heat

Ralph Beckett enjoyed the perfect result in the Gr.3 Oak Tree Stakes when his two representatives, Saqqara Sands (Oasis Dream) and Juddmonte's Tabiti (Kingman)  could not be separated by technology in a photo finish to the seven-furlong contest at Goodwood (30th July).

Tabiti, last seen finishing third in Royal Ascot's Sandringham Handicap, set the tempo with her Listed Eternal Stakes-winning stablemate sitting second from flagfall. The pair locked horns passing the quarter-mile pole and engaged in a pulsating ding-dong duel thereafter, hitting the line in unison as the closers failed to make an impact.

Tabiti was posting her second Group-level win, having won the Gr.3 Dick Poole Stakes as a juvenile. Tabiti is a half-sister to Gr.2 winner Old Flame and her dam, Lilyfire is a half-sister to dual stakes winner Tantina, the dam of Gr.1 winner Cityscape, Gr.2 winner Bated Breath and Scuffle, the dam of Classic winner Logician.
