Did I mention that we have what looks like a legitimate contender from Dubai, although he's never raced on dirt. In Kentucky, we have a horse that has never won a race on dirt. There is still hope that things can change drastically in the next couple of weeks, but I can not remember things being this cloudy with less than five weeks to the Run for the Roses.
regarding where the horses are bred, as trainers have pointed out, horses don't know where they were born.
