UAE Derby

1-Mubtaahij - de Kock/Soumillion (Current fave couldn't have drew worse)

2-Motaa
- B Al Shalbani/J Lezcano (First of two from Top Saudi Trainer)

3-Alnajem Alfaiz
- B Al Shalbani/M Barzalona (Beat Motaa by 4 lengths last out at 8f.Both may be out of their league here)

4-Sir Fever
- C Appleby/William Buick(10 wins and a 2nd from 11 starts..Good play against at around 5-1 as Appleby barn in a rut)

5-Faithful Creek
- B Meehan/Kieren Fallon(Question mark trying dirt for first time while adding blinkers)

6-Tap That
- Y Ikee/J Moreira(Big price on a horse with magic man Joao Moreira in saddle.Biggest price of 3 Japan has entered)

7-Golden Barrows
- N Hori/Ryan Moore(Likely 2nd choice and top Japan horse is by Tapit out of Mother Russia*. Hasn't been tested much and could find himself with too much to do if taken to the rear)

8-My Johnny Be Good
- E Harty/V Espinoza(Seems like a desperation move by Harty just hoping to hit the board. Which would likely be enough points to make derby field.)

9-Maftool
- S Bin Suroor/P Hanagan(Bin Suroor is high on this horse and so am I.Candidate for best bet on card but won't know until they draw the big races Wednesday.Right now is 3rd choice in the betting)

10-Dear Domus
- Y Takahashi/K Mura(Last of the Japan horses who are the keys to this race. Are they a notch above or below the locals?)











*The same Broodmare who combined with Union Rags last year to produce a giant colt under dire circumstances.One to look for on the trail in 2016 if all goes well.

They're in Dubai...how much further away you want to get?


I'll throw a few bucks on the card..pretty wild they get that turnout for the races and not be able to bet. Looking forward to the pp draw.

Me too.
I'll probably play a few PK3s for low stakes.
Find a couple of keys, or two horse legs, and spread some in other races.

for those interested, I just looked at the schedule for the Meadowlands and they are showing gates open at 8:30 and the first race at Dubai is for 8:40.
That is eastern time. Those farther West have to get up early. I think the race for Mubtaahij is the 3rd which should be around 10:00 eastern.
I always play a few when pools are only win/place and you get part of the place pool if you run third.

Haha, good luck man.......I will wake up & watch the races on Tvg just for fun.

Start time is 8:30am thru 1:30pm.....

I believe they're back to dirt over there from poly.

Pick 3?

I'm just hoping to hit a pick 1.

nads1420 - there is no pari-mutuel wagering, that's not to say they don't make personal wagers amongst themselves. Besides we don't want their money in the pools. Not that I wouldn't enjoy "taking" some of their money, but the Sheiks would probably be throwing millions into the pools and killing any odds you might get. Would make for some interesting show pools though. Bridge jumpers would love it.

Mubtaahij on to Kentucky for de Kock/Soumillion after crushing the UAE Derby field in hand.

Horse has little chance of winning at Churchill, imo.
Yet to see a really good 3yo on the dirt from there.

I wish Mubtaahij didn't win, but he did, & won impressively, & now throws a wrench into the KD for me because we know that UAR horses have done terrible in the past, they're due for a KD win.

I hope they scratch him KD day, I don't know how to cap this horse.
