Curlin is going to Dubai
 

The Star-Telegram reports it, and the Dispatch has it.

He's leaving February 15.

That's too bad.

Premium Tap will roll him up and smoke him.

Before or after Daiwa Scarlet and Latency blow past both of them?

Don't rule out Pretentious Euro Trash. He's omnipresent.

I'm admittedly no expert on international racing but based on the American horses' powerful records in the World Cup, I'd have to imagine Premium Tap is Curlin's biggest danger. I would imagine Curlin will be awfully tough in the World Cup 2nd off the layoff though.

YAY!!! Of course they will most likely send him to the breeding shed because he will have accomplished everything that would raise his stud value, but I don't hold it against them because I would have done the exact same thing with a horse that is this special. My prediction...he smokes the field in Dubai. There isn't a horse in the world that can run with this animal when he fires, and he has that long Dubai stretch to help him out.

CLearly will be overbet...

Do you have a My Little Pony named Curlin? (Breeding shed comes separate)

There's help available for people like you.

I laughed.

and then retire...dubai trip ruins most horses.......

We'll see what happens in Dubai...

Let's let Dubai do the talking, shall we?

"Derka derka muhammed jihad"

another sad day for racing in the US. i'd bet he Won't run on American soil again.

Didn't you know? It's the latest fad...

lol:)

Your last prediction on this board was that Street Sense was lame and wouldn't even start in the Derby. You saw it with your own eyes.....while watching TV. It's not your horse judging skills I don't believe, it is your remote manipulation, and my guess is you were watching " Mr. Ed " by mistake and got confused. Happens to the best of us.

You are this boards version of Dr. House.....which is actually a pretty good show.

Tons of stallions begin breeding mares in May. Maybe they will send him directly to Australia 1st then shuttle him back to the US?

While I am all for going for the cash, and I am obviously not a trainer, nor will I ever be, but wouldn't it be beneficial to get this horse a 8f prep before going a bizillion miles to run 10f's without meds, off a layoff.

Just going there seems like a recipe for disaster.

man you gotta stop.....I have had to replace two keyboards now because of spitting my coffee out while tryin to choke back a chuckle

The news the other day was that he'd have a prep there.....

Who knows.

Personally, I think someone stole her user name and password or she was zapped by aliens because she was never this retarded before, from the Ron Paul crap to other things....

Who cares about my last prediction? It won't have a thing to do with the outcome in Dubai...

Well, we all saw Street Sense's workout before the Belmont just as we all saw Discreet Cat's workout before the BC...I'll leave it at that. Just because the horses run fast, does not mean they are sound. You see it all the time, and I've seen/been around enough sore horses in the mornings to know that they can run through their problems on race day. We all know how Any Given Saturday turned out after that race at Tampa (another horse that I said was off)... Todd Pletcher was only able to get one truly good race out of him at the end of the summer after giving him a break....

So, I was wrong about Street Sense at the beginning of the year, just as you were wrong about Lost in the Fog. I'm sure we both will be wrong many other times as well. I know that I have been wrong a lot of times before, but who hasn't when it comes to horse racing?

You would think the writers at Bloodhorse would make a mention to that. If they do that I guess it is cool. From a financial perspective, which Jackson might be considering given he probably shelled out alot of cash to become the primary, then the prep will be larger then anything here. But he runs like crap in the prep, you risk looking like a moron

OMG.

Scav is right.......even you weren't this far gone before. I can only hope this is attributable to the very understandable college student's dabbling with very hard drugs.

I hope you get clean before performing your first major triple bypass surgery.

Shes a doctor too?

Either that or she thinks she plays one on TV.

Are you referring to me?

No, me

I'm a pre-med student at UNC-Chapel Hill.

Is it true that the dorms there are overcrowded and they have placed many students in the local Holiday Inn Express??

Don't you think we should clear up the whole mess about Street Sense's pre-Belmont work first before getting to this?

You think it's easy following horse racing and performing eye transplants in Nepal?

I'm thinking that an answer to my question might help clear up the other matters.

Yes, Street Sense's work just before the Belmont. After that work, they decided not to race the horse because he looked so bad.

I said that he was awesome in the Haskell. Well, the only race that was exceptional was the Haskell. He ran a decent race in the Dwyer beating a mediocre Grade I horse on the dirt (Nobiz Like Showbiz couldn't come near the likes of Hard Spun, Lawyer Ron, Street Sense, Curlin....etc.), and didn't look all that great in the Brooklyn. He was bad after the Tampa Bay Derby until he got the break after the Derby. Then, he transformed into a whole new horse after the break. He was always that talented. Even BTW said that. I thought he was BTW's Derby horse if I'm not mistaken. So, you tell me...

I'm thinking of checking in at the Holiday Inn Express down in Chapel Hill.

UNC Chapel Hill is a crowded place when it comes to housing, but I am a junior and I live in a single dorm. Alot of people live in off-campus housing because alot of the people that go to my school come from wealthy families. I don't think anyone is living in the local Holiday Inn Express. At least, I don't know anyone who is...

damn there goes another keyboard.....
