Indian Blessing should be 3/5 and Black Seventeen 5/2 ... cinch exacta.

The 30/1 on Happy Boy looks good to me. Go Ahmad Ajtebi go!

The fact that they're giving $6,000,000 away to this group of woodchucks makes me want to commit hari kiri.

Why is the Godolphin Mile 10 furlongs?

More importantly, how is 1600 meters about 10 furlongs?

ArlJim78 · #6 03-25-2009, 05:02 PM

you have to do a double take on the dirt races, when you compare the purse and the field. Indian Blessing might embarrass that bunch.
Albertus Maximus morning line favorite for the World Cup??

Has Indian Blessing raced with lasix in the states?

I don't think it's as straight forward as many think.

Its a shocking World Cup field, 13 of the 14 runners (Anak Nakal the exception) are rated between 113 and 119. Anything could win this..

And does anyone know why the title of the races is :

DUBAI WORLD CUP SPONSORED BY DUBAI WORLD CUP??

Not without drugs, I won't be. I'm assuming it's had everything in the States? The draw is usually a key issue in the sprint, and I've not had chance to really look at that yet.

A few decent sprinters in there, won't be easy against horses used to the conditions.

The Indomitable DrugS · #15 03-26-2009, 05:23 PM

Without drugs?

Please, our sprinters go over there and win that joke of a race every year. Look at the last five winners of the race...

* '08 Benny the Bull over Idiot Proof

* '07 The moderate Kelly's Landing over the moderate Friendly Island

* '06 The moderate Proud Tower Too over the moderate Thor's Echo

* '05 the moderate Saratoga County won

* '04 the moderate Our New Recruit over the moderate Alke

I see they named Prado on Indian Blessing ... about the last big name rider you ever want to see named on speed. Still shouldn't matter. As long as they don't install a synthetic surface like Santa Anita has in the next two days .. she will win with disdainful ease.

Travis Stone · #16 03-26-2009, 08:00 PM

Such insane amounts of money being given away... and when Meydan opens, it could be more!

I agree with you on everything else but do you actually have a list of what jockeys should be on speed in straightaway sprint races? If so, I'm very impressed.
