Respectfully its not OK and comes off very poorly and highly subjective.

Give Dutrow 20 horses in Dubai with unlimited money, unlimited meds, on site water thread mills, hyperbaric STALLS, and zero concern for 9 months of the year and I promise you he will put on a real friggin show for your home boyz.

Just listened to Dick Powell on ATR and he said you have to listen to de Kock. Everytime I do it just costs me money and gets me in trouble... Especially after a few pops, de Kock starts to make alot of sense and I basically follow him blindly but the results are usually the same. It costs me money and gets me in trouble.

I've heard from very reliable sources that the horses in Dubai are not nearly as medication free as we are led to believe. . .

Ya think? Pat's worried about my meds.lol Actually who cares what meds they do or dont use. The meet has zero worldwide creditabilty. The only people that give a dam about the meet are the non Sheik billionaire owners looking to pad their pockets and steal money or the owners looking to sell a horse to them to ruin.

I like watching the races and certainly look forward to world cup day and its OK racing. But applauding Tam Lin for making 6 starts in 7 weeks is just stupidity at it's finest.
