Actually, I disagree. He got away with a very easy opening quarter and I don't think he got eyeballed the entire race (just going by the chart). Then he couldn't rate and couldn't stay going 8 1/2 furlongs, now he's gotta try to rate again off a very quick horse and stay 9 furlongs.
As far as I'm concerned, as a Curlin fan, I need Flying First Class in the race just to keep Deadly Dealer honest. There's no speed besides those two, and even though I don't think DD stays the trip, if he's allowed to saunter up front, he probably isn't coming back to the pack.
If anyone pressures Deadly Dealer, I think Curlin picks 'em all off.
