Did any of you watch Curlin win Dubai World Cup?

Hope he sticks around.. If he does, likely to be the richest horse ever to race.. Think he has earned over 9 mil.

this beast will go down as one of the all-time greats

[INVEGA MAN]

I was at Suffolk Downs this morning to bet the Dubai World Cup races and ended up going with Curlin in the main event. I don't like taking chalk, but Curlin is indeed one of those special horses.

Horse racing is a complete ripoff, only reason to go is for the entertainment of watching the horses run. ****in 20% Vig here in the states, fukin no way to win with a 20% takeout, plus nowadays it's all fukin jackasses studying racing books and fukin calculating ****ing for a half hour to place their 20 dollar bets. In the old days track was packed and full of idiots betting on "greys" and fukin their favorite number/color with about a 10% takeout. A 2-1 horse then is an even money horse today, go to the track if you want a night out and want to blow some cash, hell half the exactas/trifectas that are hittable pay less than the cost of the ticket nowadays, it's fukin unreal. Horse Racing makes sports betting look like a free money giveaway.

Curlin won easily. I played Well Armed in the race who paid nicely to place. Hope Curlin returns to the states as good as when he left. There is a history of that trip being tough on horses.

Well Armed ran third

Agree 100%

[thezbar]

Well Armed ran third

With the Dubai pool A place bet is a winner if the runner finishes second or third. Their place bet is actually a show bet as we know it. A place bet on Well armed paid $19.00 even though he finished third.

That was a very nice payout there ZBar!

What about Big Brown?

Hope Curlin stays well throughout the year to make it to the BC Classic this year. That would be a phenominal race: Curlin, Pyro, Big Brown, War Pass..... but as it stands, Curlin would kick dirt on 'em.

Unlike Invasor last year who let us all down by getting injured and being retired

[Louisvillekid1]

Curlin is a great horse, what's left to do for this guy?

Can't put Big Brown in the same sentence as Curlin, only a two year old. . .

We will see , im excited for the Derby Prep races coming up.

fukin no way to win with a 20% takeout, plus nowadays it's all fukin jackasses studying racing books and fukin calculating ****ing for a half hour to place their 20 dollar bets. In the old days track was packed and full of idiots

If there's "fukin no way to win", isn't the track still full of idiots?

[pico]

yep. he is a special horse. we should sell it to those middle eastern people to bail out bear and stearns. the horse might be worth more than the company

[BrentCrude]

HRTV and TVG hosts were making a case for him to retire already.

That's the problem with horse racing,a superstar wins a handful of races and they put him out to stud.That's why I almost like going to the bush league tracks to watch cheap claimers where you see the same horses year in and year out.You get sentimental about seeing a 10 year old horse winning a race when you remember seeing him at 2 racing.
