Bob EhaltCORRESPONDENT
They see him here.
Bob EhaltCORRESPONDENT
They bet him in the Saudi Cup and Dubai World Cup.
Bob EhaltCORRESPONDENT
And as I say, I think the fans appreciated getting to see as good a racehorse as they could have brought to this race.
Sean CollinsHOST
Well, he's Bobby halt.
Simon CrisfordGUEST
But what I would say is that you're quite right to say that, you know, there seemed to be some sort of rejuvenation with his string of resources and he was enjoying tremendous success.
Simon CrisfordGUEST
And obviously, Maidan finishing third in the Dubai World Cup this year.
Simon CrisfordGUEST
It was a great moment, and he's heading back out to Dubai for the winter.
Simon CrisfordGUEST
He'll have one run here at Wolverhampton.
Simon CrisfordGUEST
then head out to dubai for for another winter program all roads leading to the dubai world cup so yes it's a it's a tremendous shame that he's not going to be there to to see all of that but um i think everyone's in in mourning and uh for one of our one of the great owners that british racing has ever seen
Nick LuckHOST
simon appreciate your time thanks so much
Simon CrisfordGUEST
thank you
Matt ChapmanHOST
And there's no reason why the defeat at York should stop that.
Britney EurtonHOST
Yeah, I know it is a game where it's, what have you done for me lately, right? I mean, we were talking Magnitude won the Dubai World Cup, and then, you know, he won the Stephen Foster, and then what does he do in the Whitney, and he doesn't run all that great, and so then you forget about him.
Britney EurtonHOST
But a horse that I think would intrigue both of us for numerous reasons, Baccio.
Britney EurtonHOST
Going for the turf sprint, American-based horse, has obviously run very successfully overseas.
45 MINS LATER
Matt ChapmanHOST
The way I think about it, like it's big odds.
Matt ChapmanHOST
Yeah.
Steve AsmussenGUEST
I think he won the Dubai World Cup and beat Forever Young in his next race.
Steve AsmussenGUEST
He was the third choice in a five-horse field.
James WilloughbyGUEST
But they've probably done it in less demanding circumstances than Forever Young.
James WilloughbyGUEST
And so you've also got the fact that the last time we saw Forever Young was six months ago in the Dubai World Cup when he was beaten.
James WilloughbyGUEST
He doesn't really like...
James WilloughbyGUEST
Maidan doesn't really run those bends particularly well.
Louie RabautHOST
Run happy, mirror joyful cadence.
Louie RabautHOST
who was a half-sister to Dubai World Cup winner.
Louie RabautHOST
Country Grammar.
Louie RabautHOST
The Colt was bred in Kentucky by Parks Investment Group and was purchased by Flying Dutchman for $1.05 million.
Naohiro GodaCORRESPONDENT
You know, I'm sure he's, you know, in top form.
Naohiro GodaCORRESPONDENT
You know, this is the first start since Dubai World Cup in March, but now I'm sure he's ready to run his race on Friday.
Nick LuckHOST
A- and I suppose the only thing is that he, he goes into the race now a heavy, heavy favorite because-
Naohiro GodaCORRESPONDENT
Mm
David MorganGUEST
So it's an easier task than it looked like it would have been, but he's still got to step up and show that he's at the form that he was.
David MorganGUEST
And they'll want him to come back with a winter bounce back from that defeat in the Dubai World Cup and then on to the Breeders' Cup Classic.
David MorganGUEST
So I'm really looking forward to see how he performs in that race.
Michael CoxHOST
And what I'm watching for, well, I mentioned it in The Standard, in my role here in Hong Kong as racing editor at The Standard.
David AragonaHOST
Yeah, this was an excellent effort, and the form certainly flattered subsequently as the horse that he's beating here, Nisus, came back to smash some really good American foes in the Met Mile this summer on Belmont Stakes day.
David AragonaHOST
So the form of this race certainly held up, and of course he went to Dubai after that like he did the prior year and lost as a very short price in the Dubai World Cup.
David AragonaHOST
It seems, in retrospect, Ashley, like maybe Meydan is just not the favorite surface of Forever Young because it's not just the two Dubai World Cups, but even his UAE Derby there a couple years ago, maybe not his A effort.
David AragonaHOST
So maybe not his favorite surface.
David AragonaHOST
Maybe he doesn't love that, uh, turnaround of one month in the Middle East.
Sean CollinsHOST
I think it would be like a Baeza, Phileas Fogg getting up on the lead and, you know, being able to take it the whole way.
Sean CollinsHOST
We saw Magnitude be able to do that against Forever Young a couple months ago in the Dubai World Cup.
Sean CollinsHOST
And I'm not saying that I'm expecting Forever Young to lose because I'm not.
Sean CollinsHOST
But I'm saying like if they're if for this group of horses, this is exactly the scenario you want to face them in.
Ruby WalshPANELIST
But Kudwa is the one I like.
Ruby WalshPANELIST
We haven't seen Kudwa since Dubai World Cup night when he chased home on Bud's man.
Ruby WalshPANELIST
Prior to that, out in the desert, he beat Dividend and Holloway at boy.
Ruby WalshPANELIST
in a group too and I know he's off the track a long while but there was races in the UK that the Christmas could have picked and they've come to Leopardstown with Foodwell so I'm going to in the hope that they have him straight and they're happy with him I think he arguably has the best form here
