Who To Follow At The Dubai World Cup Meeting 2022

Charlie Appleby has had a superb winter away in Meydan this year, sending over a great team of horses, winning plenty of races and he is now looking to sign off by landing some decent prize money.

One of his first big chances on the night comes in the Group Two Gold Cup which he won back in 2019 with Cross Counter and he has a huge shout this year with the unbeaten Manobo.

In the Al Quoz Sprint he has the two at the top of the market with Man Of Promise and Creative Force both having leading chances off the back off their last runs.

In the Group One Dubai Sheema Classic he fields Breeders Cup Turf winner Yibir who is looking to land black type races in three different countries.

Appleby heads into the meeting sporting a strike rate of 25% for the last two weeks, managing to land two winners from his last eight runners.

Christophe Soumillon heads into the weekend with some big chances for various trainers and for that reason is worth following on Saturday.

In the first race of the afternoon he sits on the talented Storm Damage for Saeed bin Suroor who is looking to land a hat-trick of wins at the track.

He rides Berneuil in the Al Quoz Sprint who could pick up each way money at an each price and he then sits on Glory Vase in the Dubai Sheema Classic, who is a live player.

Soumillon rounds off his afternoon by riding the highly talented Real World in the Dubai World Cup for a trainer who has won four of the last six renewals.
