...Probably no BC for Discreet Cat though, Gus...r at least that is what they are claiming right now and I really can't blame them to be honest with you...they probably feel like they already have the race won with Bernardini and Invasor - and I think they are right...

Let's see how George Washington runs on Sunday, and then we will be able to more accurately predict how many "pounds better" they are.

I hardly believe taht they would plot a conspiracy from the top to do something like that...hell, they don't have to....they are sporting type people with nothing to prove and they are really strict on their morals and i just can't see that, but whatever...that is just my feeling....just because those horses had tranqs in theior system doesn't mean that it was a conspiarcy from the top dog himself to cheat and win...i just can't see that as their style...i can't....they believe in respect in decency much deeper than we do....you can lose a hand for stealing in soem thrid-world countries over there.....

I NO, I'M TAKING UP FOR THE SHIEKS AND NO THEY DON'T PAY ME A DIME..I WISH THEY DID BECAUSE I WOULD BE MUCH RICHER...:D

Gold For Sale and Simpatico Bribon raced with tranquilizers in their systems. And their performances showed it...

I believe that both of them were undefeated up to that point, and Gold For Sale looked unbeatable in his prep for the UAE Derby. Similar to how Discreet Cat looked in his prep.
