Thunder Snow Defends Dubai World Cup Title


Recommended Posts

  • Journalists

Thunder Snow (Ire) (Helmet {Aus}–Eastern Joy {GB}, by Dubai Destination) became the first horse to win multiple G1 Dubai World Cups when getting up by a shade of a nostril to nip Gronkowski (Lonhro {Aus}) at Meydan on Saturday night. While the inspired runner-up shadowed the pacesetting North America (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) through the early stages, Thunder Snow sat in their slipstream. Gronkowski looked to be getting away midway down the stretch but Thunder Snow, who also won the G2 UAE Derby here two years ago, slowly ate away the advantage under Christophe Soumillon. The two runners appeared to hit the wire in unison and it took the judge to separate them, with Gunnevera (Dialed In) checking in third. Lifetime Record: 23-8-7-3. O/B-Godolphin. T-Saeed bin Suroor.
