2020 Dubai World Cup & Florida Derby

How Pay Per Head Bookie Agents can promote Florida Derby & Dubai World Cup betting during the COVID-19 induced sports break

The coronavirus pandemic has turned the sports world upside down, but horses are still running and your players can get down in the racebook.

The NBA and NHL seasons are on hold. MLB Opening Day was on March 26. That’s not going to happen. Baseball might not start until June. The disruption, no doubt, has led to a loss in revenue and, likely some anxiety about your sportsbook business. As an online bookie, you might wonder what you can offer your customers.

It’s ironic that even though the major sports leagues are on hiatus, the sport that started it all goes on like business as usual. Thoroughbred tracks throughout the U.S. won’t run races in front of fans, but they will run races.

When it comes to what track you should promote this week, nothing compares to Gulfstream Park. Check out why you should promote horse racing betting on Gulfstream races. Also, see why March 28 could be a huge day for your racebook’s bottom line.   

Gulfstream Park Runs Weekly From Wednesday to Sunday

The final day of the current Gulfstream Park meet is on Sunday, March 29. Although that might bum some of you bookies out, the following week racing shifts from Gulfstream to it’s sister racetrack, Gulfstream Park West.

We’ll make sure to give you the scoop on racing at Gulfstream Park West as well as other tracks running after Gulfstream goes on hiatus. In addition to Gulfstream Park, per head agents can offer horse race wagering this week on Aqueduct, Santa Anita, and Oaklawn Park.

Gulfstream Park Runs the Florida Derby on March 28

Due to the pandemic, Churchill Downs has switched the Kentucky Derby from May 2 to September 5. Although that’s a bummer for horse racing fans, it won’t affect one of the most important Derby preps of the year, the March 28 Florida Derby.

The Florida Derby is a must watch and wager. Pay Per Head agents can promote Florida Derby betting. The win pool alone should attract over $200,000. This is especially true because Churchill Downs has changed the Kentucky Derby date.

Horseplayers wager on horse races. The great thing about March 28 is that not only will Gulfstream Park run the Florida Derby, but they will also run excellent Grade 1 races before the featured event.

Check out the possible field for this year’s Florida Derby.

Dubai World Cup Day on Saturday, March 28

On March 28, before the three-year-olds race for glory in the Florida Derby, the top horses in the world step onto Dubai’s Meydan Racetrack for the Dubai World Cup. The World Cup offers a pool prize of $12 million. It’s one of the most prestigious horse races of the year.

No doubt, bookie agents should push wagering on the Dubai World Cup. But, just like Florida Derby Day at Gulfstream Park, the Dubai World Cup constitutes a “day” of racing. All told, horses will run for a total of $35 million in prize money. 

Horseplayers lay down big dollars on every Dubai World Cup event. Dubai is 8 hours ahead of New York. If it’s 3:45 pm in Dubai, it’s 7:45 am in New York. The Big Apple is 3 hours ahead of Los Angeles. So, if it’s 7:45 am in New York, it’s 4:45 am in L.A.

When you encourage wagering on Dubai World Cup Day, you want to make sure your players know what time the races start in their geographical location. Check out the possible Dubai World Cup field.
