Who's really going to Turkey?
Got this from Ray Paulick's blog: http://www.paulickreport.com/blog/co...ed-for-turkey/ which has Dehere, Lion Heart, and Powerscourt going to Turkey. Then I saw elsewhere that Yonaguska is being cleared to leave and that it's being denied that the other three along with Cuvee are going anywhere. I missed the first 30 min of ATR so if Steve mentioned it, sorry for the redundancy.
Didn't Old Friends try to get Strike the Gold back from Turkey before and the fact that folks wanted him so badly caused the price to get jacked up and they couldn't do it? That was the Turkey Jockey Club right? It's been a little while, I just remember $50 certificates being sold to raise money sort of like tiny shares for a piece of STG. Sorry if that info's not correct, it's from memory and I feel like it was a few years ago. I just know it seemed like it might happen and there was disappointment. If I'm misrepresenting the TJC I apologize. Every time I hear about stallions going to Turkey it makes me think of that. STG was my first Derby pick and I still remember his Pimlico Special fondly. |

I think Strike the Gold is back in the States now if my memory serves me correctly.

Wouldn't be surprised if the Turks get a world-class sprinter from Lion Heart, or Cuvee....Name him "Sof Ucku Dan."

Danzig, this is par for the course in many supposedly progressive Muslim countries.

To be honest, It's usually the Kurds (in Southeastern Turkey) that do the honor killings in Turkey. I think that's probably the case in this situation. That area is almost all Kurdish. The Kurds are always fighting the Turkish Miltary in Southeastern Turkey. I don't know why the Turks want that area. Maybe for water, or they want a buffer zone. Maybe they just enjoy control .
