The Saudi Cup (G1) is the richest horse race in the world, run annually at King Abdulaziz Racecourse in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. First held in 2020, the race is contested over 1 1/8 miles on dirt and is open to elite Thoroughbreds aged 4 and older from around the globe.
With a massive $20 million purse, the Saudi Cup regularly attracts top dirt horses from the United States, Japan, Europe, and the Middle East. The race has quickly become a key international target early in the season and a proving ground for horses aiming to establish themselves among the world’s best.
The 2026 Saudi Cup is scheduled for Saturday, February 14, and will be held as the centerpiece of Saudi Cup Weekend at King Abdulaziz Racecourse.
The Saudi Cup consistently draws elite international fields, making it one of the most competitive dirt races anywhere in the world. Bettors are often faced with a diverse mix of proven Grade 1 performers, overseas shippers, and lightly raced horses peaking early in the year.
Saudi Cup betting includes, from a handicapping standpoint, key factors such as how horses handle international travel, prior dirt form, pace adaptability, and whether a runner is returning from a layoff or already race-fit. The 1 1/8 miles distance also tests stamina and tactical speed, especially against a fast early pace.
Despite its short history, the Saudi Cup has already crowned several high-profile winners and global champions. Past winners often continue on to major international targets later in the season, reinforcing the race’s importance beyond its record-setting purse. See the full Saudi Cup Winners list.
