With a focus on the Meydan card, we’re going to be picking out a few accumulator wagers and doing our best to figure out the bankers on the day. There is a lot to like about these deep fields and savvy punters will have set up access to both American and European betting pools for the race - in order to ensure maximum flexibility. 

Though it will be difficult to get extremely significant variances on American runners because there is only a single American entry on the day - Zee Bros (who runs in the colors of Zayat Stables) is the only one - it will still be worth having access to a second set of odds to add value for certain contenders. 

Looking at the card, you get the feeling that there are a few solid bankers that many expect to be able to get the job done here. They include the likes of Cavalryman in the Gold Cup - he’s priced at a solid 5/2 but will likely be much shorter on the day. He is a likely candidate for a number of multi-race wagers and will be a popular option in that capacity. 

Shea Shea in the Al Quoz Sprint also looms large as one of the biggest fancies of the day and the 11/8 price gives you every indication of how well the punters expect him to run in this effort. With only Amber Sky and Sole Power looming large as outright challengers here - you get the idea that this one could be money in the bank for your accumulator tickets. 

Another significant favourite is Long John and you get the feeling that he will either stuff the competition here or wind up getting beat by the likes of Giovanni Boldini. Punters will find the Godolphin charge priced at a 7/4 listing right now with his aforementioned challenger available at 11/4.
