@serious495@mewgami I could see it, the only other int expedition he was part of before the L'arp was last year's Dubai Turf where he finished 4th, on a mile. With Romantic Warrior retired and Calandagan heading for the Japan Cup, he has a decent shot.
@kiwifrutii According to the staff from the breeding farm he came from, he was actually very shy when he was a yearling, its only once he started training that he got really cocky and mischievous.
@MariaBNYC@historyrock_ The far, far worse sin Nirvana committed is inspiring a completely mind numbing, money-grabbing uninspired genre in Post-Grunge. Most of the people who call Nirvana bad do it for internet points they cant tell you why they hate them or dont like them.
@aobrienfansite Surprised with the incorporation of 5 Kitasan Black foals, im guessing Croix du Nord's success proves pairing him with European mares could provide more high caliber colts/fillies like CdN? Or is it carryover hype from Equinox?
@kikimanzana_@norcoreano Nunca tuvieron mucha facha que digamos pero la edad y la droga les cayeron horribles. Caso similar con Dave Mustaine, parece mi abuela.
@NotF0843635728@kid_kazuma And that Japanese horses are well, way stronger in their own home soil than other horse racing nations id say. They have been favorites over the foreign runners for a few years now.
@NotF0843635728@kid_kazuma The issue isnt the prize money, rather that it happens a month after the L'arc and a few weeks after the Breeders Cup so on top of having to pick one of the 2, int runners also need to spend a bunch of money and time to travel to Japan (cont.)
