The Dubai World Cup Carnival continues to show the way to the big night April 5.
An impressive warmup by Dubai's champion sprinter and an early showcase for UAE Derby (G2) contenders shared top billing as the Dubai World Cup Carnival rolled on Jan. 3 at Meydan Racecourse. Tuz served notice with a dominating victory in the Dubawi Stakes (G3) that, at age 8, he is more than ready to defend his crown in the Dubai Golden Shaheen (G1) on World Cup night April 5.
The Calumet Farm-bred son of Oxbow shrugged off early pressure, surged to a big lead at the top of the stretch, and was unchallenged en route to a 4 3/4-length victory over Colour Up . It was his second win of the Dubai season and showed promise that the Bhupat Seemar trainee could become the third horse to snare back-to-back victories in the Golden Shaheen.
