If you are implying the Sheik admit the mistake is "sending his stable
to winter in Dubai, then returning 3-yr olds to race in the Derby... the odds of that happening are...50-1 .

Jason Levin spelled out clearly in his book Desert to Derby that the Sheik "is determined to win the KD with a Godolphin 3-yr old horse who wintered in Dubai". The Sheik "always gets what he wants" except a KD winner.

Soon the day will be here when Godolphin will own every Derby contender, and where they "winter will be irrelevant"
