For this reason betting on the Dubai World Cup is always a hard one to predict for both punters and bookies alike as a different horse tends to win the race every year. One consistent element of the Dubai World Cup are some of the racing groups that enter horses.

Godolphin Racing is one such group and are world renowned for their thoroughbred-breeding program. Their hard work has returned dividends as they’ve won the Dubai World Cup Race five times and so online bookies tend to give Godolphin horses favourable odds.

When deciding how best to use free bets remember the name Saeed bin Suroor as he's trained all of Godolphin's winning horses and was a British Champion Trainer four times.

Dubai World Cup Tip

Another great Dubai World Cup betting tip is Joel Rosario, the up and coming jockey from the Dominican that won the race last year and is always worth considering when using free bets.

Animal Kingdom, the wining horse in 2013, is already five years old, but don't spurn those free bets just yet as Animal Kingdom is still exceptional and among the world's most bet on horses.

ust weeks after bringing home the win in Dubai, Animal Kingdom won the Kentucky Derby in the US becoming the only five-year-old horse to ever accomplish the feat.
