Thunder Snow triumphs
, April 1, 2018
Godolphin's Thunder Snow, trained by Saeed bin Surour and saddled by Christophe Soumillon, made history on Saturday winning the $10 million Dubai World Cup race at Meydan Racecourse. Thunder Snow was followed by West Coast (USA) while Mubtaahij (Ireland) came third.
The spectacular day of racing boasts total purses of $30 million for 9 Group races.
Thunder Snow’s win took his career tally to seven wins in 18 starts and provided bin Suroor with his eighth Dubai World Cup win from 42 runners – a record which towers across his rivals.
