Trainer Bob Baffert out of Dubai's big horse race

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) - Bob Baffert is back in Dubai, although this time he's keeping a lower profile.

The Hall of Fame trainer has no horses in the $10 million Dubai World Cup, which he has won twice. In fact, he has only one horse racing Saturday - Euroears in the $2 million Dubai Golden Shaheen.

Baffert had planned to have Game On Dude in the world's richest horse race, but the 4-year-old picked up a foot injury after his victory in the Santa Anita Handicap. Baffert considered sending Misremembered but felt he needed additional time to get ready.

This is Baffert's first trip to Dubai since 2001. And even though he doesn't have a World Cup contender he wanted to recognize the work being done in Dubai in promoting racing.
