Darley is going to do the honorable thing and bring Any Given Saturday back to the races next year. he has a great chance to win alot of grade 1's and be a very special horse. Everyone was feeling good that darley was bucking a trend and doing the right thing

SiKE!!!!

We were just yanking your chain. He's going to stud like everyone else. HOpe you really didn't thinmk we were going to pass up a millions of dollars to actually give something back to the game, lol, that's funny

remember, english is not my first language, so bear with me here

I think Phyche is when you try to fake someone out of a mindset or something like that. for instance, if I am playing baseball and I'm pitching, I might try to "psyche" the batter ouf of his game

SIKE is joking with someone... like "I'm going to give you 20 dollars".. "Sike!"

If I'm wrong, please correct me. lol, I probably am

anyway, why the change of mind on AGS?

Toccet's spelling is correct. It's "psyche", even in jest.

And if you call me a poo-poo head, you can go to your room without supper. :wink:

OK, I have a conspiracy theory.....maybe Darley is trying to take every possible fan favorite off the track early, thus killing fan interest/fan development, effectively killing racing in the US, then everyone will have to come to Dubai to watch racing and sip cold drinks on a man-made island, where they can't gamble, or drink Kentucky Bourbon (?), but can experience the pleasure of sand sneaking up the bathing suit.. :twisted:

very interesting. but if not for him someone would have bought all 3 of them.

I plan to go do Dubai next year for the Dubai World Cup. I've been dying to get to this city with night clubs made of ice, 7 star floating hotels and man made islands as well as world class horse racing as well for a long time

It's a place of amazing contrasts, many of which aren't easy to digest as a westerner and especially as a woman.

It may be the most modern country in the world in many regards (I would say to the point of extreme tackiness), but you're still looked upon as a disgusting example of an ever approaching west in many ways... again, from a woman's perspective.

Been twice... will go again... but its always for business... never for pleasure. With that said, I have two friends that live there most the year and they love it.

I'm kicking myself for not going this year. My best chance to see my fav horse in the world, Vengeance of Rain, up close and personal and I pass up on it, basically because I was too lazy to plan a vacation. won't happen again.
