You are a truely funny person, dont turn into a hater like most people on this board. But I have to say I was impressed with Einstiens performance and im sure the connections got exactly what they wanted to out of this race. But its not like my opinion matters much here anyways.

trust me, hes really not that funny.
and coach, i wanted to gang up on you here and i did not, i dont take cheap shots like you.

Like Secretariat, Curlin pretty much has nothing to prove on dirt, and it would just be a display of versatility were he to win a big turf stakes. By the same reasoning, you might suggest that he show up for the BC at Santa Anita, too.

US-raced horses never have to turn right-handed at speed, they have never developed the muscles or flexibility on that side (unlike Euro-horses) and would be running with a major disadvantage.

Melbourne based horses float over and go the Sydney way with success all of the time.

The biggest hurdle for US types is their inferiority, not the layout at Longchamp.

The only horse that I can recall who absolutely detested going right handed is Vroom Vroom from the David Hayes stable a couple of years back. He has since died of a heart attack, but that horse was a terror going left-handed, and absolutely useless going right handed.

Vroom Vroom dies during trackwork

Monday, 28 August 2006:

David Hayes lost one of his main Cox Plate hopes when Vroom Vroom suffered a massive haemorrhage during trackwork at Lindsay Park on Monday and died.

"He wasn't working particularly fast either," Hayes said of the bold frontrunning imported six-year-old.

"He didn't drop but gradually slowed down, collapsed and died.

"He was one of my main Cox Plate hopes."

Vroom Vroom was a Group One winner of the Argentine Guineas and had won three of his first four starts in Argentina before being sent to Hayes in Hong Kong.

He failed to adapt to the right-handed direction of racing there, being placed just once in nine Hong Kong starts.

Hayes brought him to Melbourne where he excelled the left-handed way, winning four races including the Listed Auckland Racing Club Stakes (1600m) at Flemington.

The gelding ran third to Our Smoking Joe in the St George Stakes (1800m) at Caulfield and a close fourth to Roman Arch in the Australian Cup (2000m) at Flemington.

Vroom Vroom hadn't raced since finishing fourth to Cosmo Bulk in the Singapore International Cup (2000m) at Kranji on May 14.

He was due to resume in Adelaide on Saturday week.

Look I can't help it if I'm being ganged up for an opinion that doesn't mean jack s.hit in the grand scheme of things. I can handle ateam and Hoss. They love arguing semantics and I do too. We have a difference of opinion on where Einstein should be running...that's it.

This is stupid. To suggest that a US horse would not be at a distinct disadvantge running at Longchamp is insane. The thought that US horses are inferior to foreign horses is silly and simply not true.

i am in no way suggesting a race on turf would raise his fee, that's been my point all along--i think he's reaches his ceiling stud-fee wise. i think jess jackson has a once in a life time horse, and it's in the twilight of HIS life. i don't imagine he'd look back fondly to curlins retirement, but races leave a wealth of memories. i'm glad he's kept him out there, just wish there were more like him.

i agree he has nothing more to show on dirt. as for santa anita, i'll be surprised if he shows, since he's never run on awt to my knowledge.

Our top class grass horses are inferior to top class European horses on the turf. Not even a contest.

That's like saying our sprinters in the Olympics aren't superior to the Polish 100 meter runners.
