Big City Man, dead
The 2009 Dubai Golden Shaheen winner died suddenly on Sunday. Jeff Mullins confirmed the story this morning.

A real shame. He was a nice horse. I had posted his passing on the angels thread this morning but it's nice to see a thread for him.
First time I heard of him (and I remember this cause it was my birthday of all the silly things) he won at Nad al Sheba, beating a nice field home. Bounty Quest was in that one as well as Instant Recall and Daybreak Dancer. Forget who else but I think he beat Salaam Dubai and Star Crowned a couple of times. I didn't realize he was here till this morning. At least he's not suffering anymore. Rest in peace. His finest moment... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVKqr1hAwKo

His cecum was strangulated, twisted, dead, and horses need that - you can't just remove it.
