Henny goes to Dubai and you hear nothing about him until he returns ....... to another trainer! Godolphin is a program operation. They fit horses into their program. Any horse who is tough to train, etc, they do very poorly with. The Albertrani's/McLaughlins, etc have success because they know how to deal with the projects that don't fit into the program. Look it up. You really need to investigate the facts. Of course if you are voting for Obama, then the facts obviously don't matter to you.

Henny Hughes was never a Godophin, or a Darley member. Someone with a better memory than me can probably tell us what member of the sheik family owned and raced him. He was a fantastic sprinter when he came back No ill affects wnen returning to the states. Only a harendous start in the BC kept him from getting a fair chance in the sprint..
