UAE 2000 Guineas

The UAE 2000 Guineas, is a horse race run over a distance of 1,600 metres (one mile) on dirt in February at Meydan Racecourse in Dubai. The race is restricted to three-year-olds.

It was first contested in 2000 on dirt at Nad Al Sheba Racecourse. It was transferred to Meydan in 2010 where it was run on the synthetic Tapeta Footings surface. In 2015 the synthetic surface at Meydan was replaced by a dirt track.

The UAE 2000 Guineas began as an ungraded race before being promoted to Group 3 level in 2002.

In 2026 the event became a qualification event for the Euro/Mideast Road to the Kentucky Derby.
