On Wednesday evening, the Saudi Cup was held in its fourth edition, which will be held on the 25th of this month, with the participation of 13 horses, with prizes of $ 20 million, which is the most expensive of all.
Emblem Road, the defending champion, will live in the eighth gate, and Scotland Yard will live in the fourth gate, while the “Country Grammar” and the runner-up of the last edition will be in the tenth gate, while the Japanese horse “Vin de Grid” will start from the ninth gate.
“Thebes” starts next to “Country Grammar” from the second gate near “Scotland Yard”, while the mare “La Gartha Rhyme” starts from the eleventh gate, and her companion “Sunset Flash” from the fifth gate.
The Japanese horse “Cafe Ferro” starts from Gate No. 13, while his companion, coming from the same country, “Benthalassa”, starts from the first gate.
Prince Bandar bin Khaled Al-Faisal, Chairman of the Equestrian Authority and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Horse Racing Club, described the lottery as balanced, explaining that horses have sufficient strength to achieve the most expensive championship, which is of increasing interest over the years.
