i respect curlin & like him enough, or well - i don't dislike him. i just can't really support him because of..

[a] his trainer
[b] 5 career races at 3? no thanks. give me teuflesberg any day [17 career races]

not that many of the othr top horses are much better, but still.. this year, the classic winning contingent doesn't do much for me... i would say street sense would be my favorite of the group. can't really fall for rags - octave is my girl!

HOTY? invasor.

travers winner? i'll wait & see who actually makes it...
