All I've gotta say about Curlin.

Curlins Performance
 

I wanted to make the first post race thread, i was wrong i loved flying first class, he dident do it...

As for Curlin WOW I WAS VERY IMPRESSED

Curlin wins big
 

Good. Slow time. 1:50.1. Three races lifetime, no racing at 2. . Gonna take a lot of money on Derby Day.

You didn't make the first post-race thread either. ateam got the jump on you.

Indeed. But the competition WAS a bit suspect.

:D It's okay, I'll merge them.

lol dam

I'm impressed.

as impressed as i was, and i was very impressed... i wont have him on any ticket in the derby....

I reckon he will go off favorite

Well......at least one 3-year-old doesn't suck.....

Good to see a horse of his talent win like that---in fact, an arguement can be made that his three lifetime races yielded the 3 best individual performances by any horse in the crop this year.

Deadly Dealer had a no excuse trip on an easy pace...he simply can't go long, Curlin got his final 1/8th in an explosive 11 and change.

Time was slow though wasn't it?

that is impressive for sure

With that margin of victory, and the unimpressive races in the Wood, Santa Anita, Bluegrass, and Illinois Derby....I suspect you are right.

Thanks o.e.y, yikes is a very under utelized word in the English language.

I was going to go with "Egads" or "Zounds," but I really think that "Yikes" says enough.

Final 3/8's in 37.45

awfully solid...IMO

Projected Beyer calculated yet?
