Now this is REALLY $1 million a day
 
I know what I'm in for, but I don't really care.

2011 Dubai International Racing Carnival schedule is out - ten nights of racing, seventy thoroughbred races in total from January 13 through March 10. Average purse distribution - $1.1 million per day. 36 of 70 races scheduled for the turf. 21 of the 70 races are Graded/Listed status.

Now - the question - will any Americans take up the free offer to ship over and give it a go? I think the chance is better this year than ever before.

The typical anti-Dubai dingo, bingo, lingo, ringo, f-in mingo.

No I've changed my tune on Dubai. I don't give a s.hit about the rights of all human beings. Obviously some are better than others and the ones that aren't equal should be forced to work for slave wages.

Just go over there and have a good time, kiss plenty of a.ss, and forget you don't have a shred of dignity left. F.uck what anyone says.

Thanks for fulfilling the prophesy.

Coach Pants 10-15-2010 02:02 PM

What prophesy? I was supporting you, brah! No one enjoys excess as much as I do. If a few hundred Indians built it with blood, sweat and tears in exchange for a few dollars to buy bread and knock-off Gap clothes so be it.

And really the half-time show makes it all worth it. Caligula eat your heart out!

Yeah but who cares about that? They're just migrant workers!!

Take that!

Do you get involved in being a pitch man for the camel races as well? Seriously, Pat do you realize how horrible a country Dubai is for everyone that is not a Dubai citizen? Do you realize how horribly foreigners that work in the state are treated? Sure if you are one of a few such as you its all good but it is hardly the land of milk and honey you seem to lead us to believe.

We get it, they butter your bread and its extra creamy but seriously have a heart its a F'd up country run by a friggin maniac. Their lack regard for humanity is well documented and because they are raped annuallyfor 10's of millions in worthless horses and camels shouldn't be a key to their place in heaven.

We are glad they pay you well congrats you are one of the few that arent screwed without mercy.. Save the sheik love for the royal family nobody is buying your swill in the USA..

A million a day for what a bunch of 20 claimers from S. Africa and Uruguay? Who the F cares its about as important a racing meet as philly park MAYBE?
