Dubai World Cup Odds Released at All Horse Racing.


DUBAI, United Arab Emirates United Arab Emirates, federation of sheikhdoms (2005 est. pop. 2,563,000), c.30,000 sq mi (77,700 sq km), SE Arabia, on the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.  -- All Horse Racing (http://www.allhorseracing.com), an international gaming company, today released the latest odds on who will win the world's richest race, the $6,000,000 Dubai World Cup The Dubai World Cup is a Thoroughbred horse race held annually since 1996 at the Nad Al Sheba Racecourse in the city of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The race is operated through the Emirates Horse Racing Authority (EHRA) whose Chairman is Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, .

"A field of 11 from five different countries will test their spirit and mettle when they line up at Nad Al Sheba Racecourse Nad Al Sheba Racecourse is a Thoroughbred horse racing facility in Dubai, United Arab Emirates opened in 1986. It has a 2,200 meter left handed dirt race track and a left handed turf course of the same distance. ," commented Leonard Manley, Director of Marketing at Allhorseracing.com.

Yesterday, post positions were drawn in an elaborate ceremony held at the luxurious Madinat Theatre in downtown Dubai. Although the richest race was only hours away, many of this year's attendees were in a playful spirit. "In the wonderful city of Dubai, it is impossible not to enjoy yourself," said Manley.

Brass Hat is the odds on favourite. Trainer William "Buff" Bradley feels that the five-year-old gelding's calm demeanor may be more important than the animal's ability to finish strongly. "I think that might be his greatest asset -- the way he handles things and does everything we ask," Bradley said.

However, Brass Hat has other strong contenders to battle and it is anybody's race on Saturday.

American trainer Todd Pletcher may secretly hope that history will favor Magna Graduate, as he will barrel out of stall number 8, the same stall which launched the noble Cigar who won the inaugural racing of the Dubai Cup in 1996. After Dubai, all his attentions will be focused on the Kentucky Derby, the first jewel of the American Triple Crown.

Vladimir Cerin, trainer of Super Frolic, was grinning from ear to ear when he heard the favorable news that his horse would come out of stall 11. As part of his strategy, this is perfect, "We don't have to rush in the race. We will wait and adjust the pace with those inside of us...my horse can run off the pace or on the lead," said Cerin.
The latest odds on who will win the Dubai World Cup on March 25th,
2006:

Brass Hat 5-1                       Magna Graduate 12-1
