Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum is Vice President, Prime Minister, and Minister of Defence of the UAE, and Ruler of Dubai since 2006. He is the driving force behind Dubai's transformation into a global business and tourism hub. A lifelong horse racing enthusiast, he founded Godolphin in 1992, the world's largest thoroughbred racing stable, with major operations at Newmarket, UK. He also established the Dubai World Cup at Meydan Racecourse, the world's richest horse race with $30.5 million in prize money. The Dubai Royal Air Wing operates his fleet, which includes Boeing 747-400s, 737 BBJs, and a dedicated Boeing 747-400F freighter for transporting racehorses globally. The fleet is based at Dubai International Airport and has been observed flying to Newmarket, London, Paris, Miami, and Melbourne for equestrian operations.
