You are welcome 
I have some good connections with certain people working in the horse races, that's why I could enter in the "golden circle" and be so close to the Maktoums. Was great!
However the Royals are quite reachable, you just have to know the places where to go to get the chance being close to them

Its the time of the year again! Could the moderators please update the thread's title until 2012? Many thanks.
March 31
The Dubai World Cup meeting consists of nine races, among them six Group Ones, with a total price money of 27.250.000 Mio USD (10.000.000 Mio USD for the big race, the Dubai World Cup.
Once again lots of good horses from all over the world have made their way to Dubai. One of the favourites for the big race is Game On Dude, who is ridden by Canadian jockey Chantal Sutherland - wouldnt that be something special, a woman winning the Dubai World Cup?!
Game On Dude's trainer Bob Baffert, one of the american superstar trainers, had suffered a heart attack in the Atlantis Hotel on Monday, and thanks to the swift help of Sheikh Mohammed, who did his utmost to get Bob into the best medical hands, it all seems to turn out well. Sheikh Mohammed payed a visit at the hospital to look after his precious guest personally.

I'm so excited for this year's edition. Perhaps Chantal can get some redemption for her Breeders' Cup Classic loss.

 Mike Smith wont be riding in Dubai.
But honestly, I would love to see a woman win this race & the sheikhs faces at the trophy presentation. It may not be the case in Dubai, but in other arabic countries the track workers are not allowed to touch women jockeys, meaning when one is having a fall they put them on a lift truck and put them in the ambulance and drive them to a hospital where woman doctors are working.

Yeah I know that Mike won't be there, I'm just saying a big win like the World Cup would be a great achievement to make up for the Classic. Besides, Mike and Chantal are good, there are no hard feelings between them. I wish the media would stop hyping up their "past love".

From looking at recent pics of Al Jalilia I think she's going to be a beautiful girl with an interesting mixture. She does not have the features of a gulf girl. (even though there are some stunning gulf girls), my point is that she will look different and she can pass for other nationalities as well not only Arab. This girl is going to be something!

I agree she is adorable and different and I think she has strong personality and charismatic like her mom you can see from this video :

Here's a video of Princess Haya speaking, I'm guessing this was fairly recent.

Princess Haya suppose to be not very smart and wise woman.
