Lets play 20 questions.
Speaking of workouts, Isnt this Curlin's third workout since the preakness? I am probably not correct, but isnt that unusual for a horse to do who has competed in the derby and preakness (in recent times). I mean he didnt win the Derby but still ran hard and finished 3rd, and had a huge race in the preakness in a record-tying time. Didnt Smarty Jones have just one workout in between the preakness and belmont? And funny cide had only one (huge blowout). How bout Afleet alex? Did he have zero works and just that strong 3 mile gallop before the Belmont.
So, Curlin has had three workouts. What Does that say about him? I think it means he's ready to rock and roll.
