WHERE FUTURE STARS ARE BORN!

 

Get ready for an adrenaline-packed Dubai Future Champions Saturday, it's a race day that's bound to get your heart racing! This day promises unforgettable moments with some of the finest jockeys, trainers, and racehorses in the sport.

 

Imagine this: a jam-packed seven-race lineup, including four thrilling Group races, guaranteeing you a day of pure racing excitement. But the real showstopper is the Group 1 Darley Dewhurst Stakes—a race that's launched the careers of countless racing legends. Think of it as the place where stars are born. We're talking about horses like Frankel, who became a legend, potentially the greatest of all time, and other notable winners like Dawn Approach, Churchill, and US Navy Flag. And let's not forget Chaldean, who conquered this race and went on to win the QIPCO 2000 Guineas the following year!

 

But that's not all! In between races, we've got entertainment that'll keep the excitement going! Plus, an after racing performance from James Riley!

 

Dubai Future Champions Saturday isn't just a race day—it's a pulse-pounding experience where top-notch racing meets an electric atmosphere. Get ready for a Saturday that'll have you cheering, gasping, and celebrating in style!

 

Tickets can be purchased online until 1pm or at the gate on the day
