Headed for Dubai tonight to support Euro Charline at the World Cup meet. If any DT'ers are going and would like to meet up, please shoot me a private message.

Cheers,

Otis

Be safe Otis

. Say A prayer for for my 2 fellow Northeastern University alumni who passed last week in a car crash in Dubai. One of them had been badly hurt at the Boston Marathon bombing .

I read about that. My condolences. Terrible story.

Best,

Otis

Fantastic opportunity, and congratulations. Sounds like a wonderful opening with a great group.
If you're ever in Australia and would like to know 'the lay of the land' in the breeding and racing industry, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Maybe my company can develop some relationships along the way.

Cheers,
Phil

Phil:

I will definitely take you up on that! Very kind of you to offer.

As it so happens, I just bought into a Dream Ahead colt out of a More Than Ready mare in Australia. I really like my Dream Ahead: (Dream Mover) that Morco Botti trains in UK. he has won twice and with a 2nd and a 3rd in five races.

So I will be down to see him race once he hits the track.Still a 2yo. i will probably kick off Team Valor ANZ at the same time and will be sure to meet with you as part of that process.

Thanks for your kind interest in Team Valor

Cheers,

Otis

Thrilling night watching Euro Charline's electrifying stretch drive in the Dubai Turf Classic from the paddock. Although she could not get to Real Steel in time, The partners are quite pleased with the $1.2 million she earns for finishing second. Hard to find that kind of prize money outside of Dubai and the BC.

Also kudos to the gate handlers for getting her in there. As you may recall, she was scratched for refusing the gate at Royal Ascot last summer. Before tonight's race, there was a long fireworks show and we were not sure she was going to have her head right. But Frankie Dettori rode a brilliant race. Great job by Marco Botti training her up to this event.

Cheers.

Otis
