I was kinda hoping Ashkal Way would go in the Mile. He'd be at huge odds, but he's got that closing kick that would make him competitive. But whatever...

Thats the one I was referring to when I said one shocked me. I can't believe he isnt going to run in there.

The problem was, didn't Sheik Mo have like 3 other otpions besides Ashkal for the Mile? They interview Bin Suroor after Ashkal won the Kelso, and he said he'd evaluate his options and consulte the Sheik. I guess they decided on someone else. Why not run 'em all?

It's the same with Bernardini and Discreet Cat in regards to the BC Classic... if they can both get the Classic Distance, why not run them both? If they finish 1-2 (which there's a very good chance that could happen), that would look really good for Godolphin.

Ashkal Way would not be competitive with the top europeans or Aragorn. He is more of a group 2 horse. Good horses don't barely beat a horse like Free Thinking.

Old dude,
Mayan King is hip #2584 in the upcoming Keeneland November sale. You got 3 weeks to raise some funds.
