Saturday's 9th race (1:40pm ET) from Meydan is the G1 Dubai World Cup for 4-year-olds and up traveling ten furlongs on Tapeta footing. #3 Zazou (15-1) was a comfortable winner over Chantilly's new Polytrack surface March 3, defeating heavy favo...

Dubai No Longer Golden

Time for us to realize that sending our top horses to Dubai to race on an unknown surface, thousands of miles away from their home, is no longer worth the money and prestige. Time for the connections of top horses to concentrate their efforts keeping their stars at their peak through a full and high...Read More

Mike in SB · I totally agree, and one thing that might help is a shift of purse money from 2 and 3 year old races to the races for older horses. Racing needs to encourage and reward owners who keep their horses in training. There are too many million dollar races for 3 year olds, racing needs an organized schedule like every major sport in the world. · 48 days ago ·

Aggadancool · Totally disagree in that Hansen a horse on the derby trail has won over both. Tapeta is a track that has carpet fibers mixed in with the sand. Our horses arent prepared properly or of condition to handle the track its not the same. You have to train for it. Our best horses may have not favored the course. But they may not be the best for that course. Japan didnt win any this year as they did last year. So The article is good but may not be on target. Plus the pic shows dirt being kicked up not fiber · 48 days ago ·

footlick · When they first put the Tapeta surface in, they were looking for a surface to be fair to both turf and dirt horses. Unfortunately, Tapeta has proven to be another entity all together. The Racing Post talks about it. They talk about how the figures they make for the Dubai races have no bearing on how the horses will perform later on turf or dirt or even other synthetics. If we send horses for the WC, it cannot be dirt horses anymore, nor can it be assumed that just because a horse has synthetic track form it will be translated to Tapeta. It is sad, but I do think that we have to realize that it is going to take at least one prep in Dubai and a very specific type of horse to win, or even be competitive there. You are right. It is futile sending our top horses to try and cope with that surface. Even turf form can't be trusted. · 48 days ago ·

AmbitiousD · Laura, I have to agree with you based on your arguments and the data you presented. Aggadancool makes a valid point that we cant expect consistent victories without adequate training (including the surface). I guess if we want to see US shippers do well in the race it may not be a bad idea to ship them to Dubai for a prep? Although, this didn't work well for Master of Hounds this year. There are plenty of tracks in the US that race synthetic and I agree that a $10 million race shouldn't be the place for the surface without recently racing on it. · 48 days ago ·

Floridaf · Royal Delta had a win over synthetics, but that did her absolutely no good in Dubai. I have to agree with you, DeadHeat. Dubai is not the place for our top dirt horses. I also think Mike in SB presents a good solution. Raise the purses of the top handicap races, and we'll see more horses like Zenyatta, Havre de Grace, Game On Dude, etc. come back to run another year. · 48 days ago ·

AmbitiousD · I don't disagree with you footlick. But, Master of Hounds was coming off 4 previous preps at Meydan, 3 on synthetic, in which he never finished off the board. All I'm saying is that the model of racing over the surface prior to the big game doesn't hurt a horses chances. Maybe MoH was not the best example. · 48 days ago ·

DeadHeat · Richard's Kid had run on synthetic before and won, as had The Factor. You cannot train a horse to like a surface or to handle it. I would agree with putting money back into the older division, however, i doubt tracks will be begin to do that until they see that more owners are willing to bring back their stars. Also, they would want their races to have a graded status. It's almost like a stalemate and neither track nor owners really want to give. · 48 days ago ·

footlick · @DeadHeat- they did have synthetic form, but their Tapeta seems to be a completely different entity. There seems to be nothing that correlates to it in the rest of the world. That is why a prep their seems to be important. Not disagreeing, but if trainers have want to go there, then they need to do what will be best for the horse in the race. And that will be prepping there, unfortunately. Not sure what the future will hold. · 48 days ago ·

DeadHeat · Footlick, that was actually the point I make. No matter what you train on it doesn't seem to translate. We cannot expect trainers and owners of our finest to ship over there to prep over the surface two or three times beforhand, not when their other major goal is the Classic, or they may want the Donn or other grade ones. Also as I said, you cannot train a horse to handle a surface. What if they were to send their horse over there only to see them lose their preps. You need a very specific horse, a very versatile horse, or a horse for course, in order to win that race. You have no clue if you have a horse for course until you send them over, and it does not seem like many are for that particular course. This again proves my main point that it is just far too much trouble, and far too much risk to be worth the trip anymore. · 48 days ago ·

ILuvTurfRacing · All I can say about Cityscape in this race is WOW!! He completely dominated a Dubai Duty Free field that I felt like was the deepest field on the entire world cup night card from top to bottom. Cityscape gave a very strong hint last season that he had developed into a legitimate G1 level horse when first finished right up Canford Cliffs and Goldikova's back side in the G1 Queen Anne Stakes at Ascot. He then went on and won a couple of G3's, one in Ireland and one in France. He was then real unlucky to have gotten clipped right on the wire by Dick Turpin in the G1 Premio Vittorio Di Cappua in Italy, and after that, he ran a really strong 2nd behind Able One in the G1 Hong Kong Mile. But today, Cityscape announced he's for sure a G1 level horse by just mauling a field that not included many of Europe's best at this distance, but Hong Kong's best as well. · 51 days ago ·

ILuvTurfRacing · P.P.#4 is an excellent draw for So You Think given his high cruising speed and running style. He came into the BC Classic off of a grueling campaign of having just run in the G1 Irish Champion Stakes, the G1 Arc De Triomphe, and the G1 Champion Stakes at Ascot back to back to back before he even came to America for the Classic, and IMO, he was by no means disgraced in the race for a first ever run on conventional dirt. The top international turf horses have run very, very well on the tapeta surface over the past 3 seasons, and I'll expect we'll see So You Think run a much bigger race in the Dubai World Cup than he ran in the BC Classic. Being a natural turf horse, I think he'll adapt to the surface a lot better than he did conventional dirt. I look for Godolphin's Capponi to try and steal this race entirely from the front end just like he did the G1 Al Maktoum Challenge Rd. 3. The field certainly can't afford to let him get away, because he holds the Meydan track record on tapeta for the fastest 10f ever run. I think Game On Dude will have a difficult time overcoming the P.P. #14 draw. That's not a knock at him, because I know what a tenacious competitor he is. But I just think the DWC field is a good bit deeper than the field he faced in the BC Classic. JMO. · 53 days ago ·
