Default Lucky to Coolmore- retired

Hate this. He could have been the star of the handicap division next year.

I don't know if I'd ever use Looking at Lucky and star in the same sentence.

One of the leaders? Sure.

Was there really ever any doubt about this? Sucks for us. . . I guess. . . but pretty solid addition for Coolmore.

Why? You think he'll make a good sire?

Fly Down's campaigned might get derailed in Dubai. Won't be surprised if we've already seen the best of Drosselmeyer, Sidney's Candy, and Twirling Candy. Apart will have the Nicanor-like burden of following in Blame's footsteps. That leaves two state-breds in Caracortado and Friend Or Foe to carry the West and East at least at the start of the year.

I have to think that Morning Line is in position to have a very good year next season given his gutsy BC Dirt Mile. Wasn't the greatest of fields, but he withstood all sorts of pressure from more experienced rivals only to get beat a dirty nose by opportunist Dakota Phone. If he sticks with races at 9f or more we might see some Old Trieste (see DrugS's trivia thread) type performances from him.
