No Dubai trip for Orfevre16th January 2013
Japanese superstar Orfevre will not be making the trip to Meydan to contest the Dubai World Cup in March.
The five-year-old heads ante-post lists for the world's richest race having been so narrowly denied in the Prix de l' Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp and the Japan Cup towards the end of last year.
However, connections have decided Orfevre will instead be campaigned in his homeland this spring before returning to France for another crack at Europe's premier middle-distance prize in October.
