Friday’s Horse Racing Features Three-Mile Chasers at Sandown and Guineas Heroine Mawj’s Return at Meydan – Racing Post

The atmosphere at Sandown’s Grand Military Gold Cup meeting will be a far cry from the luxurious setting of Meydan. Here, mud-splattered jockeys will be riding, creating a stark contrast to the elegance of the Meydan racetrack.

Meanwhile, three-time British Flat champion Oisin Murphy will be returning to the saddle to ride 1,000 Guineas heroine Mawj at Meydan. This marks a significant shift from the gritty conditions at Sandown, highlighting the diverse experiences that jockeys encounter in their racing careers.
