DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - Injury and illness will prevent the last two winners of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile from starting on Saturday's Dubai World Cup program at the new Meydan racecourse, Godolphin Racing announced on its website over the weekend.

Vale of York, the winner of the 2009 BC Juvenile, suffered a bout of colic over the weekend, and is out of Saturday's $2 million United Arab Emirates Derby. Midshipman, the winner of the 2008 BC Juvenile, suffered a recurrence of a soft-tissue injury last week and was declared from the $1 million Godolphin Mile last Friday.

Vale of York's illness has left his short-term racing future in doubt, according to Simon Crisford, the racing manager for owner Sheikh Mohammed's Godolphin Racing. In a six-paragraph statement on Godolphin's website, Crisford said plans for Vale of York are unclear.

"Unfortunately, Vale of York has suffered from colic and will not be able to run in the UAE Derby at Meydan," Crisford said in a statement. "We hope that Vale of York makes a full recovery soon, but obviously right now, all future plans are on hold for him."

I thought this was going to be about the married couple who got jail-time for sexting.
