Connections of the British and Godolphin horses taking part in Saturday's Dubai World Cup declared themselves satisfied with their luck when the draw was made yesterday.

The Godolphin trio of Dubai Millennium, Gracioso and Worldly Manner will be boxed in stalls 11, 8 and 3 respectively while the David Elsworth-trained Lear Spear will occupy berth nine and Running Stag, trained by Philip Mitchell will run from stall 12.

Dubai Millennium, regarded by Godolphin as the most exciting horse they have had in terms of class, is a best priced 4 to 6 favourite.
