I'm sure the people who follow Dubai remember him...
His name is Ampelio.
He was trained by Doug Watson, won 2 in a row at Nad al Sheba (around 2006). Maybe 1 or two other races.
He was 2nd to Dynamic Saint, 3rd to Quijano, and was exported (here).

I didn't even know where Ruidoso Downs was. Had to look it up.
Anyway, just wanted to share this with anyone who remembered him.
Poor guy.
Better days...
