Dubai World Cup Tip
Trainer Saeed Bin Suroor has won the Dubai World cup an incredible 9 times, so his sole 2022 runner – Real World @ 25/1 with Virgin Bet – has to be respected at a big price. Popular jockey, Frankie Dettori is also making the trip over to ride the Bob Baffert runner – Country Grammer @ 8/1 with Virgin Bet– so is sure to attract interest in the betting. The Baffert yard have three wins to their name in the race (2017, 2001 & 1998).
Course and distance winner Hot Rod Charlie @ 10/3 with Virgin Bet, is another that’s figured high up in the Dubai World Cup betting market in recent weeks. This 4 year-old could not have been more impressive last time out at the track when winning by 5 1/4 lengths, but this is another step up in grade.
However, if the betting is right, the horse all the others have to beat is the Todd Pletcher-trained Life Is Good @ 8/11 with Virgin Bet. He heads here having won 5 of his 6 career starts, including his last three and was an easy winner of the Pegasus World Cup at Gulfsteam last time out at the end of January. He’s the top-rated in the field and is the one all the others will be aiming at – if, however, you are looking for a possible negative – this will be his first run at the track.
