Doha, Qatar: Haunted Dream (Oasis Dream), a 6-year-old gelding, captured his first Group victory when landing the Gr.3 HPIbet Singspiel Stakes, run over 2200m, at Woodbine, Canada, on Sunday. The contest brought together a field of six runners.

Trained by Hamad Al Jehani, ridden by Rafael Manuel Hernandez and racing in the colours of Wathnan Racing, Haunted Dream came into the race on the back of a solid third in the Gr.3 Betfred Rose Of Lancaster Stakes at Haydock. Stepping onto Canadian soil, he delivered a decisive performance to reach a career best.

After a good start, Haunted Dream settled in fourth along the inside rail behind early leader Roscar (Oscar Performance).

Passing the stands with one circuit to go, he raced keenly as the pace steadied. Legal Catch (Distorted Humor) soon pressed the leader, taking over narrowly, while Haunted Dream remained tucked in fourth.

At the end of the back straight, the tempo lifted as the two leaders increased the pressure. Still travelling well, Haunted Dream angled four wide on the final bend to improve his position. Once into the home straight, he quickened smartly, striking the front inside the final 150 metres stretched clear to win by a length and a half.
Tosen Wish (New Bay) finished second, while Dancin In Da'nile (Pioneerof The Nile) stayed on for third.
