I'm sure those synthetic track wins make him eligible to give Curlin a huge scare.
He wasn't that good...he was 11th. What ever happened to Simpatico Bribon?

By the way, FTFY.

He - like the great Dynever - vanished after his Dubai race. They claimed both he and his undefeated at the time Group 1 stablemate Gold For Sale were both drugged in that race.

However, that quote came from Ian Jory - who trained both SB and GFS - so it should be taken with a grain of salt.

I'm sure Dynever, whatever he is doing, is doing it second best.

I laughed.

You remain in sharp form. I would have expected a "bounce" off your trip to Afghanistan.

He isn't even named Dynever any longer.
His new name in Saudi Arabia is "Ittasak."

I am aware of that, I just refuse to acknowledge it. Most likely his current name is glue.

Jory had lab tests done on the horses and the results came back positive, I forget for what tranquilizer. Tests were shown to the press and all. But since the tests weren't ordered by the officials of the track in Dubai, no official action could be taken, or so the track authorities said. I doubt they cared to do much, since the winner was the Sheikh's horse and an investigation would have cast doubt on his accomplishment.
