Default The Kids from Dubai
Shakis, Aliysa and now.....

From the UAE.....

Greetings moves Stateside
(no author listed... UAE press release)

Dubai International Racing Carnival graduate, Greetings (Brz), has joined the barn of Southern California-based trainer Paulo Lobo where the sophomore daughter of Choctaw Ridge will resume her racing career.

Campaigned in Dubai and Brazil by her owner, Michael Perlman’s Haras Interlagos, Greetings won most impressively on her first start in the UAE before finishing second and third to Folk in the UAE 1,000 Guineas and UAE Oaks, respectively.

Greetings won three of her five starts in Brazil, where she was unbeaten on the dirt, including a Group 3 event at Sao Paulo´s Jockey Club racecourse Cidade Jardim.

I'd have made it 1/9 in the betting that this thread was going to be about mistreated camel jockeys when I saw the title of this thread.....

However, when I saw who posted this thread....those odds soared markedly.

So basically you didn't realize that I have a royal blue cheerleading outfit, huh?

These three combined with about half the Belmont-based Godolphin runners like Council Member et al? Oh happy day!

If only Thajja and Salaam Dubai (non-Godolphin), Caradak and Echo of Light would come.....

If Godolphin really did hire cheerleaders....I wonder if they'd have to wear those blue beekeeper suits? --- Perhaps Hawk has an opinion on that?

I'm Discreet Cat's biggest fan though....

As a heads up, Godolphin has a 2yo colt in Europe by Officer out of a mare named Rovie Wade that is an absolute freak. Hopefully they don't give him some horrible arab sounding name.

You probably won't be thrilled that the 2nd favorite name for newborn boys in London last year was Mohammed.

Horse Name

YOF Sex
Pedigree

El Oficial (USA) 2005 C Officer (USA) - Rovie Wade (USA)

Godolphin's 2yo record in Europe has been shocking the last few years.. They have a tendency to let everyone else run their juveniles and then buy up all the half decent ones that are for sale..

Does anyone think Shakis has a shot tomorrow?

I think the Dubai boys (or Dubai-owned boys) both win tomorrow.

Shakis and Council Member.

Need to add a couple to the Dubai list..... Arabian Prince and Ampelio.

There's still the slightest chance that Shakis will be entered in the United Nations. Highly unlikely but if he is, can someone please call / text / send smoke signals / use thought transference... anything? i won't be around tomorrow.

Thanks!

Should be. He fits with those, obviously. I'll send you an email if he is...

Yeah I remember the Cafe Silver discussion. I'm a moron... can you explain vetted at 700? I don't care how dumb i sound... I don't understand what that means!

Phil,

Hey thanks!

It means they tried to buy and the horse didnt pass vet. Agreed price was 700,000USD

Ill tell as long as its not confidential.

I linked the race for everyone to watch but Im not sure if anyone was even interested. I have the last run on my email as well, very impressive. Stake company, near track record, never touched with the stick
