But lets also look at these from this year who werent as bad

Relaxed Gesture - 2nd Manhattan
Super Frolic - 2nd Californian
Gaff - 2nd Maryland BC Handicap

None others come to mind that ran in Dubai this year

Saturday, quite a few have come back and run ok but there is one big difference, the ones who caem back and ran ok didnt run a step over there. gesture was beaten a football field there. He didnt expend any energy, neither did the others. You haveto break em down by who actually spent energy there and who didnt. The ones who spend energy, they are the ones who run like brass hat.
