Odds Bernardini Races As A 4 Year Old?

There is no doubt in my mind they will take a stab at the Dubai World Cup on their home turf next March and maybe then call it a career.

maybe about $20 million to one....

rich people like more money just as much as anyone.

it's not about the money, it's also about darley @ jonabell. torn down and completely rebuilt according to what the sheik wanted. who better to be showcased there, than his first classic race winner???

The Dubai World Cup resonates with me insofar as Bern goes.

Darley doesn't need stud money

A lot of people who dont need money breed their horses as early as possible. Its called greed my man. Greed. Some people with absolutely no lives and fulfilling human relationships, but have tons of money like to keep it coming and coming.

whole lotta difference between WANT and NEED. i'm telling ya, darley is the key. yeah, he's got elusive quality and quiet american....but there's no classic winner there, two that produced a classic winner....but bernardini is his own. he'll be like a proud papa...or grandpapa!

nope, second to hurricane run in late july.

as of august 10, electrocutionist was the top ranked dirt horse.

but i doubt he comes to the bcc. not to face off against bernardini!

the arc maybe??

I would expect him to race again, if he is healthy. I would also expect that with his breeding they will give him a chance to win a big turf race.

Danzig · #8 08-29-2006, 08:41 PM

naaah. the sheik can win that with someone else...funny isn't it that when the top three were mentioned the other day, no electrocutionist....

Danzig · #9 08-29-2006, 08:45 PM

checking....
didn't he finish behind david junior recently?? not too far back....

darn, can't remember them all, every race! getting old i guess!

At least we wont have to suffer through a goofy celebratory dance when Bernardini wins the Dubai cup. That was unbearable.
