and does the announcement that Fabre's other horses are not coming make it any more certain he wlll make the trip?

I hope he comes.
on a downslide or not, I just cant imagine him losing the BC Turf.
No way.

It's true that he and Ad Valorem, Aussie Rules and George Washington will all be retired following the BC. Araafa as well.

I stuck it on the Swansong thread.....

I hope he comes but, personally, am not holding my breath.

Good luck if he does..... my money will be on Red Rocks. I like Hurricane Run but.....

Even though he was retired last week, connections of Sleeping Indian are considering sending him to the Mile.....

Shirocco retirement could be announced within the next 48 hours.....

That was fast..... retired.

All I know is that Hurricane Run now appears to be the most likely winner of the day.
I really thought they would just retire him, but Im thrilled he is coming to the States.

that late pick 4 is going to be fun if I can catch a price in the Distaff.

Glad you're thrilled my dear, but I'm not understanding why anyone thinks he'll hit the board at this point.

Red Rocks and although he's only had one run, Scorpion.....
