All set to go ahead at the moment according to Rishi Persad reporting on the Opening Show this morning.
However regarding Rebel’s Romance and his highly touted clash with Calandagan….Godolphin run a Fantasy League competition which starts December through to Dubai World Cup night where you can chose 10 horses from a list of Godolphin horses participating with a total of 5 swaps up to the big day Dubai World Cup night.
Just 2 weeks ago after ‘Super Saturday’ was staged Rebel’s Romance and Talk Of New York were withdrawn from the list of horses you could choose your stable from meaning they would no longer be taking part in the competition… 
So this is a real headscratcher as bookies are going 3/1 Rebels Romance for the Sheema Classic and racing sites are saying he will be a ‘possible’ runner against Calandagan.
Knowing how much Sheikh Mo thinks of his flagship horse would he really risk his life and those of others to stage this event or will it suddenly be cancelled days before should attacks escalate once more.
