The Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia has announced that the purse for the Howden Neom Turf Cup, which has recently been upgraded to Group 1 status, has been doubled to $3m for 2026.

The 2,100m invitational race will be the first Group 1 to be staged on turf in Saudi Arabia and takes place on the Saudi Cup card on Saturday, February 14.

The meeting has been further enhanced by a 50 per cent increase in prize-money for the 1,800m Listed Tuwaiq Cup, which will now be run for $1m. Entries for the dirt contest close on Monday, February 2.

Previous winners of the Howden Neom Turf Cup include Shadwell's subsequent dual Group l winner Mostahdaf, while last year the race was won by Japanese contender Shin Emperor.
