Haven't kept up with Dubai this year for the first year in quite a while and really don't find this race all too interesting.

Good luck to the Americans and to Planteur...hard-trying and very good horse who never seems to live up to what could have been (but comes close).

Personally I'm holding my breath waiting to see if Eagle Regiment is scratched (from the Al Quoz Sprint). He was scratched last year on race day and is having issues once again. Disappointing.

Joy and Fun is the other hk horse in that one and while I'm a huge fan (and have fingers crossed they can hold his tail like they do in hk so he doesn't blow the start again this year) the one I'm very interestred in is Mr. Big.

I'd assume he'll go off at pretty good odds, not known on the international stage (but in Singapore has never been off the board in 19 starts...(10-6-3) and has Zac Purton up who is absolutely on fire these days (hk).

The other race I can't wait to play is the Duty Free but that one, once again, has a very nice field.

Anyway I'd be happy to see Ms. Delta win. Not holding my breath but it would be nice.
