2023 UAE Derby Tips
Cairo is one of the shortest-priced favourites when it comes to the Dubai World Cup racecard, with many punters wanting to back the Aidan O’Brien-trained charge who has previously impressed in many of his runs to date. The three-year-old looks highly progressive and it’s little surprise to see the horse trading as favourite to win the UAE Derby.
It was a facile win at Dundalk last time out although a more eye-catching performance came in the Killavullan Stakes at Leopardstown over seven furlongs when the horse obliged as the 5/2 favourite and the connections will now hope that the horse can travel safely over to the United Arab Emirates before lining up in this encounter.
Goraiko is a Japanese raider with plenty of ability and it’s clear that the bookies are respecting a three-year-old who should be able to put on a good show in Meydan. We haven’t seen the horse run a huge amount, although there was a victory in a maiden race at Chukyo and there was also a win in the JBC Nishai Yusun.
