Trainer Charlie Appleby shipped Nations Pride to the U.S. for the Grade 1 Caesars Belmont Derby Invitational on July 9, and he closed well but could not catch pacesetter Classic Causeway and settled for second, three-quarters of a length behind that foe.
In his next start, Nations Pride turned the tables on Classic Causeway by taking the Grade 1 Caesars Saratoga Derby Invitational on Aug. 6 with a stout stretch run under William Buick, continuing well to defeat Annapolis by 1 ¾ lengths, with Classic Causeway third.
Nations Pride won yet another $1 million race in New York on Sept. 17, when he emerged victorious over The Grey Wizard again in the Grade 3 Caesars Jockey Club Derby Invitational in course record time of 2:24.14 for the 1 1/2 miles under jockey Frankie Dettori.
Nations Pride is out of the stakes-winning Oasis Dream mare Important Time. His second dam is Group 1 winner Satwa Queen.
