Cool Curlin entered for Thursday in Dubai!

Curlin was entered this morning for Thursday's race at Nad Al Sheba. He was entered in a Dubai International Racing Carnival race going 2000m(a10F) on the dirt, and will carry 60kg (132lbs) under International Handicap cond. of 100+. Curlin is rated 129.
Declarations to run must be made by 9:00AM Dubai time on Tuesday (12:00AM Eastern). Post positions and race card order will then be drawn. His race will be later on the card, so everyone in the US will be able to see it late AM-just after noon. You can watch and wager at a lot of outlets, and HRTV, and Capital OTB-TV will show the race!

All information can be found at: www.emiratesracing.com or www.drcnewswire.com And FREE PP's at www.churchilldowns.com

He looked good this morning on the track for a jog/ gallop, and has come out of his 4F breez on Sat in good order.
I can't wait for the good Carnival card Thurs, and Curlin!
75 and sunny here with a light ocean breeze!

I wonder if they are rethinking their decision to prep here now that they'll be carrying 132 pounds for 10 furlongs while giving 19 to 29 pounds to the field.

How do they handicap weights there? There is an enormous difference between Curlin and the rest of the field.

Infidel horsies get punished and/or bought over there.
