Mystic Guide makes no mistake in Dubai World Cup
Straightforward for American favourite in Meydan showpiece.
American challenger Mystic Guide provided Godolphin with victory in the landmark 25th edition of the Dubai World Cup.
Mystic Guide recorded a third successive victory in the Meydan showpiece in the owners’ blue silks, and their ninth in all following Thunder Snow’s back-to-back triumphs in 2018 and 2019.
Mike Stidham’s four-year-old, ridden by Luis Saez and sent off the 6-4 favourite, arrived from off the pace entering the straight and quickly took charge to prevail by three and three-quarter lengths from Japan’s Chuwa Wizard, becoming as 12th American-trained winner.
Godolphin’s Magny Cours, trained in France by Andre Fabre, stayed on to be third under William Buick, another length and a quarter back.
