Street Cry was 2nd fav for that Dubai World Cup race as well (at British odds). He was 9/2 2nd choice behind the 2/5 favourite Sakhee..He beat him 9 lengths..

Whatever happened to Arabian Light? He won the Breeders Futurity in impressive fashion at KEE and was never heard from again. He circled the field and won, something not easy to do at KEE with the shortened stretch for 1 1/16th races.

Pretty sure he was retired to Saudi Arabia. I liked that horse a lot considering that move he made at Keeneland, and I thought he ran pretty strong until the final 1/16 of the Juvy. I was looking forward to seeing him run on the TC trail in '01, but I never heard a thing from him again.

My personal favorite Street Cry race was the loss to Left Bank in the Whitney. That was a battle for the ages, and one that is STILL used on the cover of the DRF "Players Edition", if I recall correctly from my latest trip to Vegas.

If someone could find a video link to it I'd appreciate it.

Thanks for that one...I hadn't seen it in a while.

on the TVG coverage through the Dubai feed that day---they had an overhead view of the race and showed it in the replay afterwards---Street Cry actually surged to about a neck-to-half length lead, and Express Tour came back very late. It was an amazing camera angle. It was a lot more dramatic than the pan view.
