DEL MAR, Calif. -- Dortmund has won 8 of 10 starts, six stakes, and has earned $1,712,480 so far in his career.Eight of 10, not many do that, owner Kaleem Shah said.The losses were a third in the Kentucky Derby and a fourth in the Preakness Stakes in May 2015, races won by Triple Crown winner American Pharoah.Dont remind me about that, Shah said.Dortmund, by any measure, was brilliant as a 2- and 3-year-old. What he can accomplish at 4 will become known in the next month at Del Mar.On Saturday, Dortmund is scheduled to have his first start of 2016 in the $200,000 San Diego Handicap at 1-1/16 miles, a prep for the $1 million Pacific Classic on Aug. 20. Dortmunds return will be overshadowed by the comeback of California Chrome, the 2014 Horse of the Year, who has not raced since winning the $10 million Dubai World Cup in March.California Chrome will be favored and will be the sentimental choice of what is expected to be a large and enthusiastic crowd. Dortmund will have the role of primary spoiler in a small field.Dortmund has not raced since winning the Grade 3 Native Diver Stakes at Del Mar last November. Through the winter, Dortmund was sidelined by a foot injury, trainer Bob Baffert said. Dortmund was days away from a start in the $500,000 San Antonio Stakes at Santa Anita in February when the foot problem forced him to skip the race.Dortmund was eventually turned out for more than a month before resuming workouts in late May. On Sunday, Dortmund worked six furlongs in 1:12 in company with a stablemate.Its all set, Baffert said. He was cruising.Shah, 54, has been in a similar situation with a top-class horse coming off a layoff. He won his richest race as an owner with Bayern in the $5 million Breeders Cup Classic at Santa Anita in November 2014. Bayerns 4-year-old debut was postponed until May 2015 because of minor issues, and when the colt returned, he failed to win in five starts and was retired in the fall. In hindsight, Shah regrets the way the campaign was managed.I wish we had given him time off after the Breeders Cup Classic, Shah said. Bob was trying to make the Dubai World Cup with him. He came up with small issues. Every horse needs a little break every so often.Shah, who lives in Virginia and spends much of the summer at Del Mar, runs the privately held information technology company CALNET, which provides support for American military and intelligence.He rates Bayern and Dortmund as the best horses he has owned since his involvement in racing began in the mid-2000s. Bayern helped give Shah his best year in 2014, when the stable earned $5,977,978. The figure fell to $2,345,130 in 2015 and was $515,878 through Sunday.Its been a dry run this year, he said while watching workouts last weekend. In this business, you have ups and downs.There have been positive signs in recent weeks. On July 10, Shah had two winners on the final day of the Santa Anita spring-summer meeting -- in a maiden race for 2-year-olds with Klimt and in an optional claimer with Power Jam, who set a track record of 1:01.71 for 5-1/2 furlongs.Klimt is a candidate for the $200,000 Best Pal Stakes here Aug. 13.Hopefully, as the distances get longer, hell get better, Shah said of Klimt.The San Diegos distance should not be an issue for Dortmund. He won the Grade 1 Santa Anita Derby at 1-1/8 miles in April 2015 before he finished three lengths behind American Pharoah as the 4-1 second choice in the Kentucky Derby at 1-1/4 miles a month later. In the Native Diver, at 1-1/8 miles, Dortmund won by 4-1/4 lengths, his widest margin of victory in a stakes.Those performances give Shah hope that Dortmund can test California Chrome in the San Diego.I want Dortmund to come back running, he said. As long as we see the old Dortmund, it will be a fun race. Cheap Calgary Flames Jerseys .

Improvements might be on the way, but right now, the Wizards are trending downward -- even in their best areas.Whats goodWashingtons tickets still beat the average cost of an NBA game, but the cost of attendance rose 36 percent over the past year, more than that of any team other than the Golden State Warriors. The main difference between the two, of course, is that the Warriors win pretty reliably. The price hikes by the Wizards have pushed them down 33 spots in bang for the buck, but the franchise is still among the top half of the NBA and across pro sports in that category (60th overall). That said, this is a young team with good guard play, and it is still a (relatively) good buy.Whats badTheyre young, they didnt grab much talent this offseason, and they have one of their top players, John Wall, coming off surgery on both knees. That isnt a recipe for winninng now, and the Wizards title track (117th) reflects that.dddddddddddd Washington hasnt invested much in the Verizon Center recently, either, though its preparing to open a new practice facility with Events DC. The lack of innovation pushed the Wizards stadium experience rank down (103rd overall, fourth-worst in the NBA). Much like the team roster, the stadium and facilities remain stagnant. In fact, the franchise tumbled in the rankings in all but one category: coaching.Whats newTeam owner Ted Leonsis brought in former Thunder coach Scott Brooks, which led to that 11-spot bump in coaching. But fan trust in Leonsis and the rest of the front office has dipped after a disappointing 2015-16 season (down 26 spots to 77th). Whats more, not only did the team miss out on Kevin Durant -- a D.C. native who played for Brooks in Oklahoma City -- but they also werent even in the picture as his decision neared. Nabbing Durant in free agency would have pushed Washington way up the player rankings. Missing out on him, plus a lateral move in signing Utah guard Trey Burke, puts the roster back quite a bit -- 29 spots, to be exact.Next: Chicago Bulls?| Full rankings Chiefs Jerseys China Cheap Nike Chargers Jerseys Cheap Nike Raiders Jerseys Wholesale Cowboys Jerseys China Cheap Nike Giants Jerseys Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys For Sale Wholesale Redskins Jerseys China Cheap Nike Lions Jerseys Packers Jerseys China Cheap Vikings Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Panthers Jerseys Hoodies Cheap Saints Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Nike Buccaneers Jerseys Cardinals Jerseys China Cheap Rams Jerseys Hoodies Cheap Nike 49ers Jerseys Seahawks Jerseys China Bears Jerseys China Cheap Nike Bills Jerseys Ravens Jerseys China Wholesale Falcons Jerseys China ' ' '
