2008 Dubai World Cup at Nad Al Sheba Racecourse March 29

With a purse of US$6 million, the Dubai World Cup (Group 1) is the richest horse race. Thirtine horses all over the world will compete for the US$3.6 million first prize.

The complete field of the Dubai World Cup on March 29 at the Nad Al Sheba Racecourse:

Sway Yed ridden by jockey Olivier Peslier, 100-1
Well Armed ridden by jockey Aaron Gryder, 33-1
Happy Boy ridden by jockey Kerrin McEvoy, 16-1
Kocab ridden by jockey Stephane Pasquier, 33-1
Great Hunter ridden by jockey Garrett Gomez, 66-1
Premium Tap ridden by jockey Sebastian Madrid, 14-1
Vermilion ridden by jockey Yutaka Take, 12-1
Jalil ridden by jockey Lanfranco Dettori, 7-1
Asiatic Boy ridden by jockey John Murtagh, 10-1
Lucky Find ridden by jockey Kevin Shea, 25-1
Gloria de Campeao ridden by jockey Christophe Lemaire, 33-1
Curlin ridden by jockey Robby Albarado, 2-5
A.P. Arrow ridden by jockey Ramon Dominguez, 25-1

Reigning North American Horse of the Year Curlin was made the 2-5 favorite. Carrying top weight of 129 pounds, Curlin will be breaking from stall 12 and will be ridden by jockey Robby Albarado.

Assistant trainer Scott Blasi said, “He’s done everything right since he’s been here. He’s been training well. “I think the draw is ok, because of the configuration of the race track, and he will put himself in a good position.”

Four winners of the Dubai World Cup have drawn stall 11. If Curlin wins the 2008 Dubai World Cup, he would have been the first horse to win the Dubai World Cup from stall 12.

Gambling is illegal in Dubai but online horse wagering sites such as Bodog Racebook are taking bets for the 2008 Dubai World Cup race.
