Man o' War Stakes
In September, Mutafaweq was sent to race in the United States but had little success in two runs at Belmont Park. Ridden by Jerry Bailey he stumbled on the first bend in the Man o' War Stakes and never looked likely to win, finishing last behind With Anticipation. Pat Day took over the ride when the horse ran in the Turf Classic Invitational Stakes but there was no improvement in performance as Mutafaweq finished last of the six runners behind Timboroa.
