Great stuff on your site today, Pat. At least there was no explosion like last year!

Did it hail where you are? Was reading about it on Gulf News...

Thanks for you insight. :)

I'm having a problem finding his last race? The PP'S say May 17, 2008 at New Bury? I only see a card May 19th, anyone have a clue? Thanks

He won the Lockinge at Newbury in May but then had a fracture right before the Queen Anne and has been out this whole time.

Wigberto Ramos, there's a name I haven't seen in awhile. The same Ramos from Gulfstream Park fame?

Not to sound too stupid but i have no idea who that is!

He was a rider that was fairly proficient at Gulfstream during the 80's, one of the more notable horses he rode was Bull in the Heather. From my recollection I do not remember him riding in Dubai and thought he had retired. Good to see he is still kicking around.

Thanks, CSC. I didn't know... didn't follow any of this till Smarty so if it's pre-2004 I'm pretty lost. :D

Ok, thanks for the info.

Asiatic Boy is the one to beat. Anyone give Snaffy a chance here? He going to be a nice price.

I think Snaffy has a chance, but so does almost the entire field. I am on the verge of picking a big longshot winner for the race.

Black Seventeen may not run in Golden Shaheen By Bill Barber9.55AM 27 MAR 2009
BLACK SEVENTEEN, a 9-1 chance with Coral for the Dubai Golden Shaheen at Nad Al Sheba on Saturday, is a doubt for the Group 1 race.

Trainer and co-owner Brian Koriner said a "game-day decision" will be made as to whether the horse will run due to concerns about the five-year-old, who has missed some training this week.

"We want to do right by the horse," Koriner said. Although he came onto the course on Friday morning, exercise rider Colleen Hartford got off his back after he left the track and hand-walked him back to the quarantine barn.

"You never want to see the exercise rider leading a horse off the track," Koriner added.

Go Vodka!!!!:)

Since this can be subtitled the Muller thread just wanted to say pretty nice run...

Wonder where he goes from here.
