On 31 May, the Sluzewiec racecourse, which lies in the vicinity of Warsaw, hosted the sixth leg of the 2015 Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan Cup, which was open to four-year-old and older horses and was run over 2400 meters.
Ten runners had gone to the start and once more Ameretto (Amer x Win Taouy) was first past the post, beating Westim (Nougatin x Wienerva). The nine-year-old grey Ameretto is the record holder of the series, thanks to his sixth victory that day, including four obtained on the Sluzewiec racecourse.

Ameretto has now won 12 races and has been placed ten times in 24 starts. He was bred by Paul-Jean Daverio and is owned by Edwina Stud. He is trained by G. Richter and was ridden by H. Hanueddu.
