I hope the Twin Towers Fund refuses the Saudi's gift. I have no respect for him or his country. If he wins the Triple Crown, I'll be disgusted as well. But you can't blame it on the horse. So, I hope War Emblem goes all the way. It's just too bad he'll be carrying such a scum-sucking owner with him. And, I won't shed a tear if someone else wins the Preakness tomorrow. Call me bitter - I really don't give a rat's behind. I have no need to kow-tow to the Saudis, and I find it utterly disgusting that one of their ilk may take the coveted Triple Crown.

Would that be great if Bob Costas is forced to say 'Well truth is we dont want your stinking $5 million dollars, we much rather perfer the 14 sacred cows we recieved last week..'

Should be fun!

I dobut they will want to cause an international incident on stage in the winners circle with (bleetch!) Her Majesty Queen Hillary the First with the trophy presentation.

Come to think of it, she might and try and take the check for herself and HillPac... Costas will say something like 'I will hold this $5 million for the Twin Towers Fund so they can come and pick it up,' (then Hillary disappears and tries to make a run for it before anyone can notice..)

The only good thing about this is that the Chicago owner gets 10 or 20% of the winnings out of the bonus as agreed to in the contract. So the Prince will have to pay at least $500,000.00 out of his own pocket to the original owner!
