I steadfastly maintain Happy Boy isn't a bum.

Even though he got hurt after his one monster win over the track last year .. which was very legit ... and Godolphin bought him and tried to ruin him by sending him to Europe.

He's actually run a couple of half way decent races in a row and his form is starting to come back from the grave. 30/1 on the ML .. and there is no way in hell anyone's finding that horse appealing besides me. I'm going to be a rich man after they run that race.

Casino Drive like dirt and should like the sloppy the track that is all but guaranteed. His early Beyer of 102 and most recent Post rating of 120 put him as high if not higher in both those categories, considering his brevity of races and potential room for continued improvement
Still, I may box him with My Indy

Godolphin's first win on Dubai World Cup night since 2006. Could be a great night for them!
