BEWARE the Dubai Duo, Regal Ransom/Desert Party. You ask me, trainig a horse for the KD in Dubai is dumb, but I will bet you a dollar to a donut that one or both of these horses will be right there coming down the stretch. I saw Desert party beat Vineyard Haven at the Spa last year in the Sanford. He beat him again (and Regal Ransom) in Dubai earlier this year, Regal Ransom turned the tables on him last time out. The bloggers I am reading say RR looks GREAT.
Dunkirk has the best breeding for this race. He can definitely run with this group. I wish he had a few more races in him. I think he was scheduled to ship to CD today, so he will get no work over the track. Another ???. Pletcher will win a Derby. Is this one it?
Can't wait for Saturday!
