Don't believe the press. It's usually nothing more than propoganda.

I'm not saying he's a monster or isn't a monster, and he is a politician, so these things might be true, but then again, his opponents might just want you to think that.

I do know he had a great Russian champion named Indian Jameson. He went six for six and won the Russian 2000 Guineas.

He's considered by at least 2-3 people to be the greatest Russian racehorse ever.

I wonder if this was his groom.

(Not going to post link after link listing the allegations but I just found this and thought it was well... interesting).

His horse, Bankable, won today in Dubai.

Hooray!

Wonder where he's gonna spend the .

Kalashnikov, hired assassins, paying people to kidnap, torture and murder human rights activists, more "pets" (like the tiger he allegedly keeps chained up that he enjoys beating (hey we all need hobbies, right?)...

So little time, so many crimes.

There was a kind of raw eloquence in that post, Freddy.

No I don't expect anyone to give a **** and believe me once today is over I'll have forgotten all about it too (hey I'm human and I'm not holier than thou... just makes me sick. That he bought Mourilyan makes me want to vomit) BUT it's worth mentioning.

Amazing. Apparently he was also trying to buy another American based horse who ended up not getting invited. That's a very short list of potential horses.
