He said the same about you.

Sorry he's injured, hope he'll be okay but yeah I'm happy he won't be making the trip.

I was thinking about the possible field for the DWC...

Is it me?

Isn't it lacking this year?

Not to sound like Alan or anything but ummm there are a couple of good ones pointed but the rest seem interchangeable.

Ha. I'd really be bummed if we lost Game On Dude.

I don't like any American horses in that race, Pat.

It's a long ship and the surface doesn't favor dirt horses.

Still a way out, but Game On Dude does seem to have a huge pace edge for now, especially considering the way the race has been run in recent years...we'll see.

Bad news: out 90 days. Good news: not the same injury as the Belmont. We could conceivably see him run in the Dubai World Cup next year if he's on his game enough in the fall.

If he does retire in September, it'd be kind of annoying for Barry to just sell him straight to Japan or Europe. Yeah, I get that it's a business, but you'd think they'd try to stand him in the US before looking overseas.

Huh?

There hasn't been a decent renewal since Pleasantly Perfect beat Medaglia D'Oro in 2004.

This year has So You Think and Royal Delta aside from the aforementioned Grade Two Dude.

Excuse me Sir but what about when Bullish Luck (applause ) was a spectacular 3rd in his very first run on dirt (and Eeennnn vhhhaaaa ssssourrrr wasn't too terrible)?!

I'm more excited about Smart Falcon, Planteur and Cirrus des Aigles but still... not too damned excited at all.

This is too funny... John Moore might run Xtension in the World Cup instead of the Duty Free cause it's the softer option.

God I hope he does. That would be fantastic!

Gee for someone who is usually so smart...

Of course i meant me. Duh. Now that you mention it though it does seem to be lacking.

If GOD goes (and i really couldn't care less cause he'll be off the board but if he does) do we have to start calling him Allah?
