Dubai on TVG?
 

Will TVG have coverage Sat morning? Starting at what time EST?

thanks

I thought I read HRTV

Don't think so... I believe they lost the coverage to HRTV last year.

darn - ok thanks

Anyone know if there will be PPs at DRF? Can't find them yet, free or for sale.

Quote this for oreo. Thanks.

I've gotten them from DRF in years past. I'm sure they will put them up this year. When they will do it, is an excellent question.

On TVG 9:30 AM ET with Todd

Thanks. I know BRIS has them as well, but I was looking for DRF specifically.

Whew!

TVG to Telecast Dubai World Cup

TVG announced March 27 it reached a "last-minute agreement" to feature live coverage of the March 29 Dubai World Cup from Nad al Sheba Racecourse in Dubai of the United Arab Emirates.

It was previously announced HRTV would also carry coverage of the Dubai World Cup. TVG’s coverage includes the major stakes races on the Dubai World Cup card, including the Dubai World Cup (UAE-I), Godolphin Mile (UAE-II), UAE Derby (UAE-II), Dubai Golden Shaheen (UAE-I), Dubai Duty Free (UAE-IT), and the Dubai Sheema Classic (UAE-IT).

TVG’s Dubai World Cup coverage, beginning at 10:30 a.m. EST, will be hosted by Todd Schrupp, who will be joined by Simon Bray and jockey Corey Nakatani. Bray was the assistant trainer for Bill Mott when Cigar captured the 1996 inaugural running of the Dubai World Cup. Nakatani has ridden several times at Nad al Sheba and won the 2001 Golden Shaheen aboard Caller One. Advance deposit wagering is available on all races through TVG.com, Mobile.TVG.com and TVG’s telephone wagering systems.

“TVG is thrilled to deliver the world’s richest horse race featuring Curlin to more homes than any other network in the country,” said Tony Allevato, TVG’s executive producer, in a news release. “We are extremely grateful to the Dubai Racing Club. Without its efforts, our coverage would not be possible.”

Curlin, the reigning U.S. Horse of the Year and winner of the 2007 Breeders’ Cup Classic Powered by Dodge (gr. I), is taking on a star-studded international cast in the World Cup that includes Vermilion from Japan, Asiatic Boy from Argentina, Happy Boy from Brazil and Premium Tap from Saudi Arabia. Curlin’s fellow U.S. counterparts Well Armed, Great Hunter and A.P. Arrow will also contest this year’s World Cup, in which a field of 13 will travel the 1 ¼-miles classic distance.

are any regular tv carrying the races even tape delay?

No idea (not that I know of anyway) , but the replays are up after about ten minutes or so. :)

Per DRF.com:

The World Cup is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Eastern and will be broadcast on tape delay at 2:30 on ABC. The races can be seen live on HorseRacing TV and TVG and on many online wagering platforms and will be streamed in real time on espn360.com.

Actually from a betting perspective I am not even interested in the Dubai World Cup, instead I am betting the undercard. Unless Curlin DOES NOT run his race, I don't see anyone that is in his league here. Jalil has wiseguy written all over him as he does intrigue me a little, but at what odds do you take the second most attractive horse in here?

at least 10/1 on Jalil. I think Curlin has a 90% chance of winning, and I am only assigning that 10% not winning because of the hilarious things that can happen, even in the desert, in racing.

-Training like a monster
-2nd start off the layoff
-decent figure off the layoff
-lays over the field
-decent post, allows him to survey what is going on

He just isn't going to lose. If for some reason the public allows him to go off at like 4/5, it might be absolutely unload time for me, but I am guessing more like 1/2 or 2/5

i believe espn will during the florida derby coverage. probly only the curlin race though.

All things being equal, I agree Curlin shouldn't lose; however this is horseracing and we know there are no locks in this game...Saying that I hate betting a race just for the sake of betting where my only hope is where the clearcut best horse doesn't run his race. History says American based horses run very well in The DWC, it's either that or a Godolphin horse as it seems with this race and I doubt even the connections will admit that Jalil is the second coming of Street Cry...

Or maybe I should have referenced Moon Ballad, but then again Harlan's Holiday is no Curlin either...
