Nice horse who won everyones favorite race, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup . I think he had a name change too but just cannot remember and don't feel like spending the night looking for Saudi racing sites.

I won't bombard anyone with all the HK runners... let's just say there are a LOT (but at least they get cool, somtimes fun, interesting or occassionally really really bad names. As far as I'm concerned these beat Sattaie and Allam any day of the week).

Dynever did not have a name change. He's dead now, colic got him late 2011, but has been a really successful sire.

I'm almost certain he did have a name change to the one I listed. I have the old PPs somewhere.

Of course he did.

Pat's wrong.

King's Boy won this race last year before finishing a distant fifth in the Dubai World Cup. Dynever, whose name has been changed to Ittasak by his new owners, Prince Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Sons, finished another 6 1/2 lengths in front of Alssarh, the Argentine-bred formerly known as Second Reality.

Better Talk Now...

He was in the BC how many times? He holds the record, right?

How about a race named for him?

Perfect Drift?

Thanks!

Kona Gold was before my time (in terms of racing) and the little I know about him is because of King but i didn't know this...I had no idea.

Amazingly, Kona Gold didn't even start until the end of May of his 4 yo season.
