What the Nation is saying about So You Think...

I reckon So You Think would v Frankel over 8 to 10 furlongs would be decent race, So you think can go 2miles but has a great turn of foot as well, food for thought anyway
awsome run in the tattersalls from the champ,looks to have recaptured top form
As much as I would love Royal Delta or Game On Dude to take this one home for the US, I think So You Think could be an absolute MONSTER on the synthetic footing. While the Dubai World Cup has been owned by price horses on the Tapeta, I don't think there has been a horse the caliber of So You Think in either of the past two World Cups. Add in the set up of the race, and I think So You Think wins the Dubai World Cup in style.

While 2012 Dubai World Cup (G1) fourth So You Think will head off to stud, Dubai Sheema Classic (G1) victor Cirrus Des Aigles will meet tough-luck Dubai Duty Free (G1) fourth Wigmore Hall in Sunday’s Prix Ganay (G1) at Longchamp. The going is expected to be very soft, but it shouldn’t bother the win...Read More

I don't like that he just tried Tapeta for the first time on Wednesday, but I hope O'Brien kicks some butt with this horse, long awaited redemption for the admirable dirt BC Classic. Dirt brought this one down, will Tapeta do it this time?

  • larooski · Turfway has had 1 fatel breakdown in 4 months of winter racing. They know how to take care of their track. So what if it's too loose, it's super safe. They know what they're doing. · 58 days ago ·

This race, on Tapeta Footings, could set up well for SYT, as turf horses transfer very well to the tapeta surface.
The Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic winner, Royal Delta, looked phenomenal in Dubai on Wednesday. She has the same look she did before her big win at Churchill Downs in November, and was just striking today when on the Tapeta. As always, our thanks to Cedric Lane for the photos. These and others are a...Read More

From the Coolmore web page: All being well, So You Think heads out for Dubai on Sunday. If he travels well, and Aidan is satisfied, he's a definite runner on Saturday in the G1 Dubai World Cup!! His jockey will be Aidan's son, Joseph O'Brien, who rode St Nicholas Abbey to Breeders Cup Turf success back in November!!!

This is what I want for my birthday: "And here they come down to the wire, and Game On Dude is making his late run, he's running them off their feet as the come down the stretch! But here comes So You Think! He's coming from the inside, It's Game On Dude! Game On Dude giving it all he's got but So You Think is passing him! SO YOU THINK WINS THE DUBAI WORLD CUP!"
How do you explain the Breeder's Cup?

  • CraigBradshaw · in watching horses at my local track, turf horses do very well transitioning to tapeta footings. in fact, when races are off of the turf, very few scratch when moving to the main track. consequently, syt, if he enters the dwc, should do quite well. · 148 days ago ·

Dross won one GR1 and a Listed stakes......but also finished behind ( A sprinter) Jackson's bend in the GR3 Skip away....this horse is not of the same Caliber.
