I wouldn't want to admit I was a Godolphin sycophant either.

If there is anything in the universe that recognizes beautiful moments...


then one of the Japanese entrants should win the World Cup.

If there is anything in the universe that loves fat people and heartless dictators...

then Godolphin will dominate the evening.

And if there is anything in the universe that cares about journalistic integrity and its inability to take a stand against tyranny...

then this post will be deleted.

Does anyone know the drug testing policy over there? I mean come on the Sheikh has won 3 already. Now who is going to take blood and pee from the ruler of the country at the racetrack he owns and his money paying out the purses?

Very satisfying conclusion to an otherwise humdrum card. Happy for the Japanese that can take a little pleasure out of the result.

He didn't win, but Cape Blanco certainly ran better than was advertised here. Lay of the century....

Me neither, thats why I thought it was respectable. The horse went on and made a good account for himself despite the ride and be 5 wide around the far turn

Very sentimental moment for the Japanese. Also chalk one up for a grandson of Sunday Silence and my wallet!

Can't tell you what it was like to be there amidst the Japanese winning the World Cup - the results basically allowed the rest of the night to fade into the background. Can't wait to talk about it on Steve's show next week.
