From Racing Post.....
Discreet Cat may be first choice for Cup by Tony Elves UAE Discreet Cat could emerge as the most likely contender from Godolphin for the Group 1 Dubai World Cup at Nad Al Sheba on March 31. The Forestry colt is unbeaten in six starts and, after winning a conditions event over 1m at Nad Al Sheba last March, went on to capture the 1m1f UAE Derby on World Cup night, when the richest race in the world was won by trainer Saeed Bin Suroor for a fifth time with Electrocutionist. Discreet Cat was campaigned back in the US for his final three races of 2006, but showed his ability to compete at the highest level when landing the Grade 1 Cigar Mile at Aqueduct in November by three and a quarter lengths from Badge Of Silver. Simon Crisford, racing manager to Godolphin, said: “Discreet Cat has been put in the Dubai World Cup, and has been put in the Sprint and Mile as well. “We have got to see how he is over the next month before we begin to formulate any plans. He’s just got in from America and is settling back into his routine here at the moment. “Discreet Cat is the only provendirt horse we have in the race – the others are all turf horses who will also have entries in races such as the Sheema Classic.” http://www.racingpost.co.uk/news/mas...ational%20Zone

I´ve been away from this board from a long time!....sorry about that :-)
Tomorrow starts the Dubai Racing Carnival....and I confess that brazilian horses have one of their best animals out there this year... Tomorrow, they are: 2nd race - Alto Taquari; 3rd race - Comandante Xará, Te Voglio Bene and Vampiro; 4th race - Estrela Brynhil (USA bred, but raced here in Brazil), Nhecolândia and Indochine; 5th race - Oakfast, Alcomo and Leaving Alone; 6th race - Evil Knievel; 7th race - Bandido Secreto, Impossible Ski and Lucky Dance They are too many to talk one by one, but you shoul watch mainly, i think: Alto Taquari (very talented colt); Comandante Xará and Vampiro (very good animals on the dirt); Estrela Brynhil (incredible inprovemente in her last 2 races, and people from the inside tell that she has broken some track records on her workouts); Indochine and Nhecolandia (also respectable fillies); Oakfast (very fast front running horse...and very talented, too); Evil Knievel (best older horse here in Brazil 2 years ago...participated in last year's racing carnival and I don't know his condition any more...but, in shape, excelent horse) and Bandido Secreto (The best brazilian TURF miler....but only when the grass is dry and he can race without shoes!...won the São Paulo State's International Mile and got 2nd behind Top Hat when this last broke 10f. turf world record...less than 2 lenghts behind him, i think) Let's see!! Bye!

I forgot about Imperialista in the 7th race, too...i think he is also entered...and he is specialist on the dirt...very good horse too.
Does anybody know where can I get the official entries?? I only could get in the site (www.dubairacingclub.com) last year's entries. Thanks!

Evil Knievil remained in training in Dubai this year, to my knowledge... At least, in Brazil, he didnt run since August 2005.

I dont know if anybody here will follow Dubai's races this year, but watch these 2 brazilian jockey:
Marcelo Cardoso (the one who did this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYPXlmOnhxY that I posted on previous topics...he did one almost like that 2 weeks later again) and; Altair Domingos...extremely talented...one of the 2 or 3 brazilian best jockeys...better than M. Cardoso imo.

Impossible Ski is a very, very good dirt specialist....but I think this distance is too short for him; Imperialista is better suited for this distance and surface than the other 2...he raced here 4 times on the dirt....with very good results and with some strong horses...but i think the field is too strong for him too.... My favourite of the brazilian animals is Bandido Secreto by far....i am sure he is the most talented...but we know that a trip to Dubai is not only about talent....but the horse's condition too... Only in my opinion....if it was a race in Brazil on this distance and surface they should finish in this order: Bandido Secreto, Imperialista, Impossible Ski and Lucky Dance... I am risking about Bandido Secreto....mainly because here in Brazil he is a turf specialist.....but I've heard that he is very good on the dirt too!
