Byron has spin on Tapeta Gordon Lord Byron took to Tapeta like a duck to water as he had his first feel of the artificial surface at Meydan ahead of the Dubai Golden Shaheen on Saturday. Tom Hogan's Prix de la Foret winner pleased connections as he had his initial experience of the all-weather surface he will encounter on Saturday. "This is his first time on the Tapeta and Shane Foley rode him round the track and said he felt lovely," Hogan's representative Kate O'Brien told www.dubairacingclub.com. "We worked him on the grass yesterday and is really well within himself."
