You know this is coming and any day now.
Way, Way more likely to be Jess Jackson than Dubai, IMO.

Then after he runs him in all 3 TC races we can hear everybody slobber that he is such a great sportsman.
Wow, that sounds like a miserable bitter little life you got there P-Dub. You need a vacation.
Nope, not miserable at all. Going to Vegas Derby weekend though so a vacation is near. Thanks for caring.
Now you can go back and finish mowing Jackson\'s lawn. You can quench your thirst with a bottle of his finest $7 bottle. Geez, a little defensive aren\'t we??
That\'s really funny!
Jackson might struggle to come up with that kind of TOTAL Cash. However what he could do is SELL Rachel to Zayat for a price of about $12M and offer $15M Cash to purchase Eskendreya.
The Cash gives Zayat the opportunity to satisfy some of his Bankers and by owning Rachel, Zayat is still in the game with a good runner and now has a broodmare for Zensational, Pioneer of the Mile etc.
Jaskson nets a nice profit on Rachel and if Esky can hit the Triple Crown he has a 25%-50% profit in his pockets in 60 days.
Since Zayat uses Pletcher, Rachel can move to him and Esky moves to Assmussen.
Win Win for everyone.
Is this the best this site can do?
What an inane series of posts.
it\'s not over \'til Miff weighs in...
You two are missing the point. If Jackson were to pull this off and Esky were to win the Triple Crown he could lay claim to owning the last 3 Horse of the Years.
He could totally ducked out of the Rachel/Zenyatta debacle and now would actually own the \"real TV\" bread winner by having the only Triple Crown winner in the last 30+ years.
Rachel vs Zenyatta would look like \"so last year\". Jaskson, Esky and Assmussen would rule AGAIN!!
There is no point to miss except the pointlessness.
Well,
If Jess Jackson bought the Yankees and the Saints, he would have the last two major sports team champions and that would make the Rachel-Zenyatta debate yesterday\'s news....
Jackson has no reason to make the debate \"yesterday\'s news\".
And we must be able to talk about something more interesting 3+ weeks before the Derby, no? How about at least breaking out the list of horses that have run negative 2 or better in their last prep before the Derby and seeing how they ran Churchill? OR bringing out the sheets of Pletcher\'s 30 derby starters (or however many he has had).
Where is the host? Maybe we can at least get a comment about how fast the Esky race went?
Jimbo, I think our host is down in bluegrass country, working on \"yesterday\'s news\".
I actually read in the DRF before the Wood that Esky could be for sale. This discussion is not that farfetched. I guess now they wouldn\'t sell b/c what would a triple crown winner be worth at stud? Probably enough even to bail out Zayat.

Actually Zayat backed off from selling prior to Wood because he found out that the bank would take ALL the money!
