OK---I will bump this... Belatedly as I had no computer for weeks ...
It is sad that coupled with Kasept's post on this horse and the trainer's less than sanguine opinion of his chances nary a squeak no less an outcry ...
The article Theatrical posted was dated March 19---significant because it was 12 days after an unsubstantiated event on March 7 concerning this horse ...
More after the race ...
In the link My Miss Storm Cat posted out of Dubai, the horse didn't even get a mention ... Makes ME wonder ... Anyone else ???? In fact, there has been much to be wondering about all this year concerning this fine animal ...
I find this amusing in light of the teeth grinding and tears in the International threads by some over a foreign horse's nosebleeds and booboos ...
I am all about the horse and his well being---any horse---but I find the selectiveness of sympathy offered and in this case, total lack of information at best disconcerting ....
