Opinion Poll possibly in the same race? But my guess is that since Blue Bunting has been retired, Godolphin may send Opinion Poll to the G1 Sheema Classic this year? Blue Bunting had initially been slated at Godolphin's #1 horse for the Sheema. But since it doesn't really appear that it's going t...

Do It All got into this field just a couple of hours before post time when Rock Jock was a late scratch. A big break and big win for this horse. The G2 Zabeel Mile is by far the biggest win of his career to date. A lot bigger than any races he's won in America. He had finished 14th in his carniv...

It has to be difficult for horses like Regal Parade, and Prohibit recently too, to come into these sprint handicaps and run that well? Being former G1 winners, they're carrying a whole lot more weight than most of the field.

Smart decision on Frankie Dettori's part to back Counterglow out of the speed duel up front early in the race. Likely made all the difference in Counterglow being able to run down the front runner's and win this race, IMO. I thought this colt showed a really nice turn of foot late in the race com...

@goodfella30, I've often wondered that myself? Dettori's not as young spring time anymore. But he still seems to ride pretty close to the top of his game, and he also seems to have a lot energy for a man his age. So I don't really know how many more years Dettori will continue to ride for Godolph...

@EmperorOfSilence, I agree!! Even though he's ran well at a mile and 10f in his career. I think he's a little more vulnerable to defeat at both distances than he is at 9 or 9-1/2f. The 9f of the Duty Free will suit him right down to the ground, IMO!!

Nocturnal Affair's really peaking at the right time. Could be a very dangerous horse if he gets into this year's G1 Al Quoz Sprint field? I'd also expect to see Prohibit really come on from this run, too. He ran a very creditable 4th off a lay-off in this race, and lest we forget, he was G1 winne...

@henryfan9, Good call on that one, my friend!! Nocturnal Affair was impressive beating the likes of Monsieur Joe, Inxile, Prohibit, Better Be The One, Happy Dubai, and several other strong sprinters in his most recent Meydan start. I'd like to see NA make this year's Al Quoz Sprint field.
That's the best Simon De Montfort's looked since he used almost identical tactic to run down Once More Dubai and Zeitoper in his carnival debut race last year. He had 1 decent run during the 2011 season when he finished 3rd behind Prince Siegfried and Dux Scholar in the G3 Winter Hill Stakes at W...
