British Jockey to Compete During Championship Meet
Musical Romance to Race at Home of Musical Romance
Wednesday’s Rainbow 6 Gross Jackpot Pool Guaranteed at $400,000

HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – British jockey Richard Kingscote is scheduled to make his Gulfstream Park debut Wednesday.

During Great Britain’s off-season for flat racing, the 36-year-old Kingscote will ride during Gulfstream’s Championship Meet. He has one mount, South Pointe Drive, in Race 5, a mile turf event for $35,000 claimers. The Michael Lerman-trained 8-year-old Quality Road gelding won for a $35,000 claiming tag at 40-1 three starts back.

Kingscote, who hasn’t ridden in the U.S. since his fifth-place finish aboard Dr. Simpson in the 2018 Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint (G1) at Santa Anita, won the 2022 Epsom Derby (G1) aboard Desert Crown.

Kingscote didn’t grow up in a racing family but attended the British Racing School before beginning his career in 2004. He rode his first Group 1 winner, Brown Panther, in the 2014 Irish St. Leger at the Curragh.

In Wednesday’s opener, a filly with a familiar name – Musica Romance – will make her Gulfstream debut. The Robert Falcone Jr.-trained daughter of Marcel, who was bred in Great Britain, shares a name with the Gulfstream-based 2011 Eclipse Award-winning female sprinter. The Florida-bred daughter of Concorde’s Tune, who was trained by Bill Kaplan, captured the 2011 Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint (G1).
