Re: [RC] Sheikh Hamdan comments on American Endurance - Truman Prevatt

Laney,

I suspect that while the journalism may have been a little shakey - the issue is not the journalism but the fact that to the UAE there is litte difference be flat track TB racing and endurance racing. In their perspective the only difference is the distance covered. Closely akin to human track and field. The 100 meter, 400 meter and mile are just different events in the sport. That seems to be how endurance is viewed in the UAE - a different event in horse racing. Viewed that way the article makes sense.

The article suffers from very poor editing and proofreading, and a somewhat shakey command of English. Seems to me that someone got flat track and endurance racing confused and/or blended separate articles about each together into one.

The first part of the article was about flat racing with just the comment at the end. But what's the difficulty with AERC rules? No drugs of any kind maybe?
