Carl Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Godolphin has won this race four times and hopes are high that Discreet Cat can add to that tally. The Forestry colt has been impressive winning his maiden in the States (runner-up subsequently placed in Grade 1 company) and last time when beating a field of inferiors on his UAE debut/first run for Godolphin upped to 1m. He could be anything but still has something to prove in this grade The way it beat Golden Acer was nothing short of impressive. It didnt just beat it -IT BLEW IT AWAY. Word from Godolphin is that this horse is one of there best,an absolute flying machine. If it wins today then its going for the Kentucky Derby. The main danger in this race will be the chilean horse-Simpatico bribon and Bin Suroor has said he's not sure if he can beat it as this is his first real test BUT this is a speed horse and Im sure Frankie can get this baby home. My biggest bet to date. around 7/4 JT fav with Simpatico bribon. I cant wait:drums:drums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 Re: 2.15 Nad Al Sheba Gutted:sad:sad Cat to miss Kentucky bid 18 Apr 2006 Discreet Cat has been ruled out of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on May 6. Godolphin's highly-rated colt will instead be shipped to the USA and stabled at Belmont Park, where he will be prepared for some of the major races in the second half of the season. "Discreet Cat is a really promising young horse, but after assessing the situation, Sheikh Mohammed has decided that he would prefer to give him more time," revealed racing manager Simon Crisford. "We see him as an important horse for Godolphin both later this season and next year. "He won't actually be three until May so we want to give him time to develop. Although we have no specific targets in mind for him at the moment, Discreet Cat will not be running in any of the Triple Crown races," Crisford told www.godolphin.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexmac Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Re: 2.15 Nad Al Sheba I was just reading that aswell mate. It is a shame he is going to miss the Kentucky Derby like, but I am sure we will see him winning well again before long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 Re: 2.15 Nad Al Sheba yes we will Alex;) – Discreet Cat is reported to be “fit and ready” for his eagerly-awaited comeback on Thursday. Godolphin’s unbeaten four-year-old will run in the group three Burj Nahaar at Nad Al Sheba as a prep race for next month’s Dubai World Cup.
