UK ace jockey and quality racing keep ramping up Riyadh season
-
King Abdulaziz Racecourse throws open its doors for the biggest meeting of the season so far this week with four races worth 1 million riyals (S$345,000) on Dec 5 headlined by the Listed Crown Prince Cup.
Runners from The Saudi Cup will be in action in the feature on a weekend packed with intrigue, and star power with the pit-stop visit by British champion jockey Oisin Murphy.
Several key two-year-old races will also be staged as well as a return to racing on turf ahead of Saudi Arabia's first international Group 1 on the surface next February — the Howden Neom Turf Cup (2,000m).
The Listed Crown Prince Cup features a full field of 20 and gives the l0-rated Argentinian import Intense For Me another chance to prove himself upped to 2,400m after his comeback fourth in October.
