yeah, that's true. but darley has tremendously deep pockets, they could buy up all of it, and then every week we could watch darley horses. wouldn't that be fun? hey, we could even change the name of the breed to darleys. well, maybe not..i kid. but i always root for the underdog anyway. and certainly darley is no underdog.

Maybe they should just change their name from Darley to The Yankees and every year they will be crowned triple crown and Breeder's Cup Champs in January and then guess what happens....they run the race and they lose a lot more than they win....

All thoroughbreds descend from one of three horses. Darley Arabian is one; Godlphin Arabian and Byerly Turk are the others.
