Horse racing legend carries torch to World Pool

World Pool, a global horse racing betting company, has teamed up with legendary jockey Frankie Dettori in his final year as a jockey. As part of the partnership, Dettori will be an ambassador for the World Pool, producing World Pool blogs and pre-race content in 2023, starting with the upcoming Saudi Arabian Cup, where all six group races on Saturday will combine at a world level.

In a statement from World Pool, Dettori expressed his enthusiasm to work with the organization, which has expanded its presence to other countries and racetracks in 2023. “I have a lot of places to visit in my last year as a jockey,” he noted. “From the World Cup in Saudi Arabia in Dubai to the most important days in the UK and Ireland, I expect it to be a very exciting season for all of us.”

Michael Fitzsimons, the executive director of gambling products at the Hong Kong Jockey Club, expressed his excitement about the partnership with Frankie Dettori: “It’s a big year for Frankie and World Pool, after the records in 2022,” he said. ” “We couldn’t be more pleased to partner with a global icon who has done so much for the sport of horse racing.”

Speaking of his expectations and chances of winning, Dettori said: “I would love to win the Saudi Arabian Cup in my last year, and COUNTRY GRAMMER is a very solid contender. He never has a bad race, he has a lot of experience and he proved that he knows how to deal with adverse conditions last year. The Saudi Arabian Cup and the World Cup in Dubai have always been his targets and he couldn’t have felt better when he won the San Antonio Stakes in December.”

World Pool in 2023

The World Pool expanded its global reach in 2023, starting with Lightning Stakes Day in Flemington, Australia, last Saturday, which was the first Australian gathering to be included in the World Pool. The upcoming Saudi Arabian Cup on Saturday will also be the first time the World Pool will be active in Newbury, UK, with two races added to the World Pool season on Lockinge Stakes Day on May 20.

In addition, the World Pool will include Irish Derby Day among its 18 events in the UK and Ireland on 2 July, which will also feature the Deutsches Derby in Hamburg-Horn, marking the first World Pool race in Germany.

World Pool had a record betting volume in 2022, with HK$6 billion (approximately ?622 million or �725 million) in the combined 21 race days, up from HK$4.8 billion (approximately ?498 million or �580 million) in 2021. Derby Day at Epsom recorded the highest single turnover of HK$66.1 million (approximately ?6.8 million or �8 million).

Interestingly, turnover is denominated in HK$ and approximate figures in British pounds and euros are calculated based on the current exchange rate.
