African Horse Sickness is the result of the current export quarantine in SAF which requires horses to do three weeks in Cape Town, then three months at a 1/4-mile oval in Mauritius, before exporting to the EU for a month, then on to a final destination. It's five months of limited training if you send a horse out of SAF to continue its career elsewhere.

Think it's possible he ends up in the Woodbine Mile, now, especially as Wise Dan is likely to pass it.

Thank you very much. I couldn't find an explanation so appreciate it and yes, that would be nice to see him go for the Woodbine Mile.

I don't know if I have seen the Secretariat ever be a better betting race.

One of the stronger Million Cards I have seen (stakes-wise)

I glanced at the races as I printed them last night. Can't wait to dig deeper. This is going to be one fun card to handicap.

Wish I had left races 3,4 and 5 out, or at least they had them listed them as the first three races of the day?

Nonetheless it's one of the deepest million cards I can remember and agree this will be awesome sorting out.

Even the good cuts of beef have a little fat on them sometimes....
