This advance headline has been brought to you courtesy of the Eliteone. Your welcome.
The horseflesh has been measured. AK is THE best horse in the world right now. Throw out every other American horse in every other race too.
Any Questions? Class Dismissed!

hey "teach" - am raising my hand with questions lol
he's only had 1 race this year (only 3 since 6/11), will only have 10 days in Dubai before the race, has 3 March workouts at Palm Meadows, 5,6,7F, nothing long, all breezing, not handily & this is his first really long air travel experience - and none of this will affect him adversely? i dunno - i've always liked him and love Motion but the cup is like the derby to me - a crap shoot!

Cait, if you keep asking silly questions you will be kept after class and given extra homework. Three words for you dear. Trust in Motion. He won the derby his way. He nearly upset in the BC off a long layoff when people (except E) laughed at him. He used the grass race as a perfect prep for this one. His last two seconds were against quality horseflesh and even though he was at a disadvantage in both, he proved to be the best horse in both according to the Quantum Fleshmeter! WHY is he in Dubai? Thats what you need to ask. The answer is his people think he should be and feel they can win. You've got the headline in advance. Don't say you weren't given a heads up now.

there is no such thing as a silly question - now - why is he in dubai? dunno - he's taking the long route to australia? (maybe i wanna stay after class lol) there was talk of him possibly going to royal ascot - will that depend on the way he runs in Cup? will he get a workout over the track?

Sup guys?
E1, I too will be throwing out every American runner on World Cup Night....including Animal Kingdom! No doubt he's a special animal, but the track record for American runners since the Cup was revamped in 2010 speaks for itself. Since that time, we've some of our best and brightest over to go for the gold and the best we've been able to accomplish is a 4th place finish by Gio Ponti,a three-time Eclipsr Champion no less. I'll wait for the PPs to come out before I make an official selection, but expect the international players to once again dominate.
And now I guess I'll join the rest of the Breakfast Club on chalkboard duty for the next three days.

Your logic seems sound Shooter but with all due respect, Gio Ponti is no Animal Kingdom. AK has matured and they have had this race in mind all along. On top of that, the foreign horses are no Frankels...easy pickings for AK who should smash this bunch. Now get back to that chalkboard and remember, no talking in detention!

Quantumnomics has him rated #6 on the planet although he ranks a tad bit higher on Gravitational Quantumeter scale (patent pending)

The Eliteone is throwing this one back up top. Never one to shy away from his predictions, win or lose. Elite is used to performing withoput a net. I did so in the BC Mile. When everyone and their mother scoffed at my pick of Animal Kingdom. WE lost that battle but won the war as AK proved anyway to have the superior horseflesh to the eventual HOTY. THAT race and his start this year, along with my respect for Motion allowed the Eliteone to properly measure the horseflesh for his chances in the WC. Animal Kingdom, Kentucky Derby winner and already a star will become a legitimate superstar. The headline is legit. Watch and learn.
Any Questions? Class Dismissed!
