2008 Dubai World Cup Monday Workouts

Well Armed made his first main track appearance at Nad al Sheba after exercising on the training track over the weekend. He worked a half in 48 seconds flat under exercise rider Iggy Puglisi. Trainer Eoin Harty said the workout went according to plan, commenting: "I just wanted him to go an easy half mile, which he did. He galloped out strong. He's very fit and he's sound, so it was just a routine maintenance work." Harty said preparations for the World Cup are complete. "It's pretty much all done and dusted," he said. "Some light galloping, a trip to the starting gate and that will be it."
