The Saudi Cup will be televised live on a special broadcast of “America’s Day at the Races” from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. ET on Fox Sports 2 Saturday Feb 24th. Other races on the Saudi Cup card from Abdulaziz Racecourse in Riyadh will also be shown.
It can be very hard to find anything good to post from other countries that show everything we want such as post position, trainer, jockey, odds, etc. This was the closest thing I found. In this case you have to look at the post. White Abarrio has post 1 at the rail for example. Scotland Yard is an also eligible if any of the other horses scratch out. I took a picture with my digital camera. It's not perfect, but it'll work.

Meisho Hario is scratched; Scotland Yard draws in.
Derma Sotogake injured his eye during the flight. Everyone states he's ok & will still race. We'll see. I'll update again tomorrow.

Giggle . . . Odd, the Saudi Cup race has only U.S. and Japanese horses. Not very "International".
We do have America's Day At The Races on our Dish menu. Mom has it to automatically record every day.
The Saudi Cup races run from 7 a.m. to noon CST.

Athena got third place just right & I got second.
This race didn't turn out like any of us expected, it seems.

Senor Buscador deserved to win. He got pushed last at the start and horses kept getting in his way turning for home.
We taped all the races and what was great was between races they actually had info and news about the HORSES !!! No singers, athletes, movie stars or actors or showing womens' hats and dresses ... very refreshing.

Hooray for Senor Buscador, overcoming everything that was thrown against him!
I have to admit, mom always mutes the TV between races, because she doesn’t want to see all the silly stuff.
So I didn’t even know that they had news and info about the horses themselves this time.
