Dubai Racing Club, also known as DRC, is privately owned and headquartered in the United Arab Emirates. Founded in 1992, with an estimated 160 employees, the company focuses on riding and animal sports. It functions as an Emirates-based sports company and the organizer of horse racing events at the Meydan Racecourse, which include the Dubai World Cup.
On September 10, 2026, trainer Mike De Kock announced his return to Dubai, a move met with anticipation by racing fans who consider him synonymous with the early days of the Dubai Racing Carnival. Previously, on September 9, rapidly rising British trainer George Scott confirmed plans to expand his international operations this winter by opening a 20-box base at Meydan Racecourse, with his team housed in a barn outside the international quarantine stables. This follows the September 8 announcement that tickets are now on sale for the 2026-27 Dubai Racing Carnival, featuring new dining experiences, world-class racing, and 16 race meetings returning to Meydan Racecourse this November. Earlier, on July 9, York Racecourse partnered with Dubai Racing Club to allow automatic entry for the G2 Sky Bet Great Voltigeur winner into the G2 Dubai City of Gold.
