The horses mentioned are intriging. I'd just caution that in light of current circumstances, it is not advisable for Americans to go to Dubai.
Conflict in the area could be tragic for those with a primary interest in horse racing. Sad to say.

I checked the Bureau of Consular Affairs and found no travel advisories for the U.A.E. right now. There are warnings for much/most of the Middle East, but the U.A.E. is not on the list. Dubai has thus far remained a non-violent safe-haven in the middle of chaos.

Brian,
Thanks for checking. I was just giving a "heads up", as Dubai is majority Sunni. Mine was not a formal warning, rather for informative purposes based on current events.
Good luck to those that decide to go.

Noseda is sending down Bustin Justin, Country Song and Mac Love down on Sunday. The last named could prove to be profitable to follow. He loves very quick ground and can run well from 6-8f. he hasnt won since sept 2004, but has run quite well since. the change of trainer could spark him into action

Like Mac Love a lot.....

Not winning since '04 doesn't matter to me (... think Ace).
