     Location: Wonderful Wyoming | for a safe race and a win. I love seeing a horse that has his race record still out there racing. And he is always a contender. For the THE customers, you might like to know that California Chrome (Dubai World Cup-G1 $10,000,000), Big Macher/Secret Circle/ (running in the Dubai Golden Shaheen-G1 $2,000,000) and Distinctiv Passion (Al Quoz Sprint-G1 $1,000,000) are all on THE.
and on another note (apparently I am in the wrong event) look at this barn from over there!

I wonder what their houses look like? I'm the type that would live in a shanty (a clean shanty) and put all my money into a super fancy barn. I spend most of my time out in the barn anyways. |

        Location: Kansas | Fact of the matter is though that those horses in those fancy barns would be much happier with a little ole Kansas pasture. Not many pastures in the desert I would imagine. |

I was thinking the same thing. I want the barn here in the states, but my horses are always in pasture for the most part. Hey at least that way I won't dirty up those pretty stalls and walkways. |

       Location: At the race track with Ah Dee Ohs | It is absolutely amazing over there. Although I have not been to the World Cup, I have been to the races. Hubby has been to the World Cup...I was treated very well and was never in fear or felt like I was in any kind of danger. |

Good Luck to California Chrome! |

Yeah I'm not a very trusting person. When we went to south TX after horses I was packing. Don't think I will visit a country that I can't still get a little western. |

It's totally different than the tracks here in the US. When we run a 6 furlong TB race we go around 1 turn. When they run, the tracks are so big, they run down the straight away. And the gates are set on the outside fence. Very different. But a beautiful country, especially in Dubai |
