Description
This is a promotional CD put out by Darley in 2001 to celebrate the phenomenal Godolphin horse Dubai Millenium. The CD works; however I could not get it to play the four Grade 1 races that it indicates are included. That might be because this says it works with Windows 95/98 or a Mac (this was 19 years ago). Maybe someone else could figure out how/if it could play these files. The cover is in very good condition, with a few small creases near the corners.An unusual bit of memorabilia for an outstanding horse. Thanks for your interest.
