Wow! I had no idea Daaher was an American horse.

Oh wait.

He's not.

Oh. I guess you mean cause he's raced in the US and has an American trainer?

Unless he's officially changed his citizenship, I still don't buy it!

I can understand that sentiment but it's like do you consider Silent Witness a HK horse.....

Are you saying he won run in Canada anymore? Is he officially based in the US now?

I always considered SW an Australian horse racing in HK and Japan.

I guess it's an easy mistake for someone in the UAE to assume he's an American horse.

That's all I'm saying.

I know he's Canadian.....
