Since he'd have the months needed to rest back up and recoup and get in 2-3 preps before November, that's the reason why I don't think Dubai messes plans up... even if he doesn't do well there. If the ultimate goal is next November, a potential big pay day in March shouldn't sideline that. And as previous people tat have replied to this thread have also said-

He doesn't run much anyway lol.

Donn, Dubai... then if we don't see him again until the Whitney so be it. ****... if he does well on the all-weather in Dubai, maybe you think Pacific classic with him instead of Saratoga preps?

Main point though is if Dubai doesn't work there is plenty of time to get him right again

plenty of good racing here to be had, without all the issues.

f*** dubai. they had the nerve to strip brass hat of his win (his connections followed their withdrawal protocol-yeah, i believe dubais people...), and then all these stories about drugs and the sheiks stables emerge. to hell with that backwater country with a veneer of modernism, but pay no attention to the slavery. don't look behind the curtain.

The only differece between Dubai and South Africa pre-Mandella, is that Dubai has always had the oil and money to captivate the world. South Africa had neither.

Speaking only about your race placing reference, he never won in Dubai, he was a well beaten 2nd.
