HUGE ENTRY FOR BLUE SQUARE SHERGAR CUP RACES
All six races that make up the Blue Square Shergar Cup at Ascot on Saturday 7th August have attracted a high number of entries with an overall total of 452, well up on the 368 entered twelve months ago.
The Blue Square Shergar Cup is the world's leading jockeys' competition, pitting six top jockeys representing the Sodexho-sponsored Great Britain & Ireland Team, captained this year by Kieren Fallon, against six from the Dubai Duty Free Rest of the World, captained by Frankie Dettori. There is over £270,000 in prize money on offer, as well as nearly £20,000 in cash awards for the stable staff and leading trainers.
"We are delighted with these entries," commented Ascot's Racing Director, Nick Cheyne.
"It is important that we get 10 runners and 2 reserves in each race to keep the teams balanced, so the bigger the entry, the more certainty there is that we will achieve this. This year we made the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup Sprint a handicap for the first time which has seen its entry rise from 57 last year to 72 this time. That is particularly pleasing.
"There are a lot of very high class handicappers in each of the five handicaps, while the two-year-old auction race, the Porthault Shergar Cup Juvenile, has attracted a very strong entry as well. Mind you, with each race worth over £45,000 we would be disappointed if that wasn't the case."
WEAVER AND ROBERTS RETURN AS TEAM SELECTORS
Former jockeys Jason Weaver and Michael Roberts will return in the vital role of team selectors for the Blue Square Shergar Cup. They will be at Ascot for the selection process and draw for mounts on Thursday 5th August when Weaver will select the horses that will represent Sodexho
Great Britain & Ireland and Roberts will pick them for Dubai Duty Free Rest of the World.
Last year Roberts' team started big outsiders after some questioned the wisdom of his selections, but his team defied the odds with a runaway victory. The full line-up of jockeys will be announced next week.
