Not just the trainer, the rider/owner got six months, and that was Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum himself. Any idea if there's cross-discipline ramifications for Darley and/or Godolphin from Sheikh Mohammed's suspension by the FEI? Will they have trouble running in NY like the Curlin partners did?
