Yes that's why I posted the link.

Here's Fly Down's chart:

http://www.frusiya.com/english/racer...eNo=7&PartNo=1

The race went in 2:29.13


A race at the same exact distance on the card restricted to Suadi breds won by a horse named Badr Alkawakib went in 2:30.48

http://www.frusiya.com/english/racer...eNo=6&PartNo=1

Badr Alkawakib was of course sired by...

قاطف(ايرلندا)

Out of the good race mare...

الغطريفه

In both races -- the field carried weight of "56"

Video of Fly Downs race.

Unless you know Arabic, the mute button is recommended. Fly Down is #6 and breaks from post 3.

He still doesn't change leads in the stretch.

Hopefully he improves upon his 13th place finish in last years Dubai World Cup.

Great race call by that announcer, by the way.

There is absolutely no arguing that Fly Down was given an atrocious ride - he should've won with a little more patience. It was stone cold awful. He hit the lead with 5/16ths to go!??

Just a disgraceful ride from Johnny Murtagh. Not as bad as his ride on Soldier of Fortune in the Breeders' Cup Turf from 2008, which I'll argue is one of the worst rides in the history of the Breeders' Cup, but really bad.

Not saying I understand it, but this guy is newer - the old guy literally yelled and screamed the entire race.
