2013 Dubai Carnival

[PatCummings]

Figured this would be a good place to start a thread for the 2013 Dubai World Cup Carnival, which begins on Thursday, January 10.

For those looking to catch up, grab a copy of the Dubai Racing Comprehensive at the link:

In the report at the link above, there are detailed explanations on understanding ratings, the confusion of jockey assignments, raising awareness on weight assignments, some key horses to watch, and information on the newly bolstered stable of Mike de Kock for the 2013 season - with quotes from Mike on almost every horse in his barn.

Here is a list of the international horses accepting a Carnival invitation:

Should be plenty of fun, and hopefully Brockguy will get the contest going again this year!

Out of Bounds, last seen defeating Secret Circle in the Sham Stakes in 2012 at Santa Anita, is a Godolphin entrant in the Maktoum Challenge - Round 1 on Thursday, where Barbecue Eddie (yes, that one) will be one of the faves. Honestly, a slightly disappointing renewal given the entries. Final declarations with jockeys, posts, etc comes on Tuesday.
