This Thursday, Nad Al Sheba will host Super Thursday, the dress rehearsal for the world’s richest day of racing, the Dubai World Cup, and the concluding fixture of the Dubai International Racing Carnival.

The Dubai Racing Club is delighted to announce that Shadwell Farm will be sponsoring the meeting, which promises to be the best night’s racing so far this season, and a fitting prelude to the Dubai World Cup meeting on March 28th.

Dubai Racing Club is excited to again enjoy the support of this world-renowned breeding operation, owned by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum.

Mr Frank Gabriel, CEO of the Dubai Racing Club said: “The Dubai International Racing Carnival is certainly finishing on a real high, and I am delighted that Shadwell Farm, our valued and long-term partner, is part of that. We are truly indebted to His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum for his generous support.

“We believe Super Thursday is regarded as the most important meeting of the Carnival, as it features seven races which mirrors those that will be run on Dubai World Cup day. It is the last chance for horses to put their cases forward for the richest day’s racing in the world.”

Shadwell Farm’s Vice-President and General Manager Rick Nichols added: “It is once again a tremendous honor to represent His Highness Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s Shadwell Farm Kentucky in sponsoring another night of racing at Nad Al Sheba Racecourse.
