Santa Anita has to find a way to keep him in SoCal...it would be the best Big Cap in recent memory. This is what this sport needs...Chrome verse Rome all year long and I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that he could turn the tables now with that race under his belt. A trip to Dubai would certainly end all of that.

California Chrome's next race is scheduled for the Dubai World Cup $10 Mil. Art Sherman stated that it wouldn't have been his first choice.

It was a given considering his connections, but this is one time that its the right choice unless he is a bleeder. Why gut him this early facing Shared Belief when he will be the favorite for 5 million or whatever the purse is now against alot of turf horses and some others from here. As owners, you can't pass that opportunity up and he'll get a deserving 6 months off after that.
