![]() I'd be shocked if Great Hunter got more than 10 dollars bet on him to win the DWC. Even hunters and numbers players will have a tough time delving into that one.

![]() The Duty Free looks the best race on paper, such good.. Seachange a 7 time G1 winner in NZ is 50-1, just shows you how good it is.. you can get 66-1 on Great Hunter for the DWC..

from BloodHorseNOW.com... (Edited press release) HorseRacing TV will provide live coverage of Thoroughbred racing's richest day when it presents Dubai World Cup Day from Nad Al Sheba Racecourse in the United Arab Emirates on March 29. Carolyn Conley and Jeff Siegel will anchor the coverage beginning at 9 a.m. EST. In addition, HRTV's Scott Hazelton will be in Dubai reporting for the event's World Feed, which HRTV will carry. Dubai World Cup Day is the crowning evening of the annual Dubai Racing Carnival, which HRTV has aired this winter. The 13th running of the Dubai World Cup program offers seven stakes races and combined $21 million in purse money. The headline event is the $6-million Dubai World Cup (UAE-I) at 1 1/4 miles. The race will be headed by the 2007 Horse of the Year Curlin, who opened his 4-year-old campaign with a dominant performance in a prep race from Dubai in February. The Steven Asmussen-trained superstar may face up to 12 rivals. Estimated post time for the World Cup is 1:30 p.m. EST. The undercard is topped by a pair of $5 million turf events: the Dubai Duty Free (UAE-IT), with a scheduled post-time of 11:55 a.m. EST, and the Dubai Sheema Classic (UAI-IT), with a scheduled post-time of 12:40 p.m. EST. The Godolphin Mile (UAE-II) will begin the stakes slate at 9:40 a.m. EST. Last edited by smuthg : 03-24-2008 at 05:38 PM. |

![]() How does Curlin's form stack up next to Invasor's? I know a year's time can mean a world of difference, but Premium Tap arguably could have given Invasor more of a tussle with a different ride in last year's DWC. Desormeaux visually seemed hell bent on looking around for an eased up Discreet Cat, with about 10 under-the-shoulder glances to the inside at the top of the lane. Never mind that Invasor was ranging up to his horse's neck on the outside. Even after he got headed, Desormeaux didn't really get after Premium Tap (who seemed to get back on the bit late) until deep stretch.
Of course, all of this fantasia is moot if Desormeaux retains the mount for this year's running. |
