The Curragh Racecourse has extended its partnership with A.R.M. Holding, a Dubai-based multi-sector investment house, who will sponsor one of the key races on Irish Derby weekend in July.
The A.R.M. Holding Dash, run on July 2, will be run for €100,000, making it one of the richest sprint races in Ireland.
Chaired by His Highness Sheikh Ahmad bin Rashid Al Maktoum, A.R.M. Holding was established to contribute to the growth of the Emirates through strategic investments in multiple sectors.
In addition, Jebel Ali Racecourse and Stables, under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Ahmad, will continue their long-standing sponsorship of the Anglesey S. which commenced in 2009. The Group 3 contest was won by Little Big Bear (Ire) (No Nay Never) in 2022, who subsequently was crowned the top rated 2-year-old in Europe.
Commenting on the sponsorship, Mohammad Al-Shehhi, CEO of A.R.M. Holding said, “At A.R.M. Holding, we strive to encourage community involvement in sports and culture, and our partnership with The Curragh Racecourse aligns with this objective. By associating ourselves with top-tier events, we strengthen our presence and appeal to audiences globally. We are delighted to support the A.R.M Holding Dash on Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby Day as part of our sponsorship efforts.”
