It doesn't appear that Bernie will be running next year. It sucks... I would have liked to have seen him.

Finally a fan Cajun?

Never disliked him, Jessica... I'm just not willing to call him "great" yet. Like I've said before, he shows up in the BCC, and he's got my attention. I'd still like to see him up close, though.

I don't think that it is definite that he will retire after the Classic. I am very skeptical of the reports, but I won't get my hopes up. I would think that they would want to run the horse in Dubai.

Oh yeah, and just for the record, Nobiz Like Shobiz is still my Derby horse:D

that 2 year old that ran for patrick b is gonna be a star...she is i should say..she was the number 5..belgravia...wow,,,

Repent, Melhor Aienda has been retired.

Discreet cat will be the biggest star and will go down as one of the best of all time. Undefeated. Avg. victory margin over 10 lengths

My original pick was retired, so I'll go with Dynamic Saint.

If you've never heard of him, just wait till World Cup Day.....:)

I think the star of 2007 would have to be any Assistant Trainer in the US.......there's a good chance you will be in the drivers seat with all the recent trainer suspensions!

Vacare & Premium Tap

Anyone else keeping track of their pick here?

DS won easily at Nad Al Sheba today..... 2nd start, 2nd win this season. :)

I personally am looking forward to seeing Showing Up run..I think he only gets better as he matures and will be a horse to be reckoned with during his 4 yr old campaign..

Maybe better : 3rd in the melbourne cup as a 3yr old will only get better :D

will el segundo, miss finland and that half bro to Elvis be around next year??

The Gauch got the sack on el seg.Damien Oliver is expec to be the next jock
Has a ton of pace no doubt but looks like does best fresh up so maybe quite a good choice for the dubai cup.

Miss Finland well could not have been more murdered than the melbourne cup race definately not out of it.

Was actually at swan hill to watch elvises brothers 1st race still has alot to do to be up there as there are some great horses around at mo

Easy way just pick anything from "david hayes" the man has all the top horses!!!!

Close the till (alot of injurys) but if it makes the track again watch out!!

Won today in Dubai like a good boy! :cool:

What about Invasor again? Looked good in the Donn. Not one mention of him on this thread. Has something happened to him, or is he still training up to Dubai to go against DC? But he is my pick.

Actually when I started this thread I kinda meant the lesser-knowns..... :)
Who else do you like...... besides "The Best" i mean?:cool:

I am sorry to go with an obvious choice, but I saw a few Discreet Cat references . So scratch the first choice and I will go with Circular Quay. I know that he has had trouble going two turns, but after all the trouble he had in the Risen Star and to still finish fifth I think he is a special horse.
