Overview
- Organisers confirmed the full Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup line-ups on Monday with Ryan Moore and Dylan Browne McMonagle added to the Great Britain & Ireland side captained by Saffie Osborne.
- Moore will make his first Shergar Cup team appearance since 2006, and his availability followed the Phoenix Stakes being moved to Sunday at the Curragh.
- Dylan Browne McMonagle arrives on the back of a strong season that includes multiple Goodwood winners and victories in the English and Irish Oaks.
- The event will pit four teams—the Great Britain & Ireland side, the Hong Kong Jockey Club led by Vincent Ho, Team Europe captained by Christophe Lemaire, and the Rest of the World—against each other across six races with each jockey allocated five rides.
- Ascot said the late confirmations aimed to field the strongest teams possible, with Hollie Doyle ruled out by injury and organisers highlighting the Shergar Cup's role in connecting riders with new trainers and owners while boosting the meeting's international profile.
