I’m no Meydan expert but I enjoy handicapping world class horses. Here are some picks for the later races.
UAE Derby- Es-Unico is my bomber. Ran 2nd at Meydan 2 back and Timeform figs are competitive. Worth a shot at 20-1. Perriere and Derma Sotogake live Japanese pair. Cairo might be tough to beat but I’m looking to at his short price.
Golden Shaheen- Sound Money was sharp in his last over the course. Don’t forget he was 2nd to two BC winners, Jackie’s Warrior and Cody’s Wish when he was trained by Chad Brown. Lemon Pop will be dangerous if he can shorten up (you know I’m a sucker for a Lemon Drop Kid horse!). Gunite dangerous on his best.
Dubai Turf - Serifos stretching out but should get the trip. Nations Pride trained by the ever dangerous Charles Appleby. Lord North goes for a three peat in this race.
Sheena Classic - Equinox is a beast and should be tough to beat. If he falters look for Shahryar or Mostahdaf to upset.
Dubai World Cup - the Japanese have become big time players on the world stage. Ushba Tesoro has become a beast since switching to the dirt. Taken to upset at 10-1. Looking to beat Country Grammer at short odds. Vela Azulejo and T O Keynes are two other live Japanese longshots.
Getting up early and heading to Monmouth as the UAE Derby goes off 9:35 EST
Good Luck everyone and hoping for at least one winner. Steve

Thanks. Nice hit. I didn’t see prices. What did he pay? I think you also have Texas to win it all like I do! Steve

I got screwed. Would have hit the pick 3 with him but they weren’t taking pick 3 bets! Steve
