At least eight Cape bred thoroughbreds have been entered for Dubai World Cup night, one of the world’s great racing and social events which is set to take place at Meydan racecourse on Saturday March 25th.
Nine major races have been carded to take place on the night, with the night’s total prize money reaching a whopping $30 000 000!
Cape breds have already enjoyed plenty of success on World Cup night with past winners including the likes of Jay Peg (G1 Dubai Duty Free), Soft Falling Rain (G2 Godolphin Mile), Variety Club (G2 Godolphin Mile), and Victory Moon (G2 UAE Derby).
Among the Cape bred potential runners on the night is former G1 Grand Parade Cape Guineas winner Noah From Goa, impressive recent Dubai winner Sanshaawes, and former G3 Winter Derby winner Liquid Mercury.
